Abstract. Defendant’s testimony as evidence has been known in the Indonesian criminal justice since HIR was in effect which was regulated in Article 307 HIR. After the KUHAP was promulgated, it was changed to defendant’s testimony which only states that he has committed a criminal act as it is being sued while in the evidence it has a broader scope which includes his testimony and denial.The implementation of defendant’s pleading guilty as justice collaborator is found in the Verdict No.683/Pid.Sus/2016/PN.Pbr in which the defendant is legally proven guilty of committing criminal act in drug abuse. On his pleading guilty, he is appointed as a justice collaborator, and the police develop the investigation until the real perpetrator.The reform of the criminal justice system in Indonesia in the RUUKUHAP accommodates defendant’s pleading guilty through Special Lane of the Plea Bargaining System which is relevant to Special System in Article 199RUUKUHAP in which a defendant pleads guilty of his illegal act with the sanction of less than 7 year-imprisonment, the public prosecutor can turn over the case to a brief interrogation and can simplify the long process of criminal justice in order to realize the principle of simple, quick, and inexpensive Administration of Justice. Keywords: pleading guilty, justice collaborator, plea bargaining
