Not a lawyer, but this feels like it could backfire on the government. If they don't offer an alternative to murder, i would imagine there would be a higher chance of him being found not guilty should there be any level of uncertainty in the jury.

Jury nulification is a sweet set of words.

I think the reference is more about how much harder it is to prove a capitol case versus proving lesser charges. He may get off completely if the jury won’t convict.
