Nobody is going to listen to that. Well after what Central City has been seeing during the past 4 or so years (metahumans, other earths etc.) I dont think this would be especially weird, and I think most of the jury members would actually think Barry is telling the truth, and definetely if he told and showed them he's the flash. So just because he is the Flash and weird things are happening in the city, evidence goes out the window?

Let me tell you what would happen if Barry revealed his identity in front of the court and said all of this.

Barry: Now your honor, i was really framed by Clifford DeVoe.

Prosecutor: Clifford DeVoe is dead.

Barry: He isn't. He is now inside the body of Dominic Lanse. I have this photo of them kissing to prove it.

Judge: Do you actually have any further evidence to back up your claims?

Barry: Well no... Yes sure evidednce wouldn't go in Barry's favor, but at pretty much the same time as the final sentencing, captain Singh was giving the flash the award of valor (not sure if I spelled it correctly but you know what I mean) and was also saying how much the flash gave to Central City, and how much pain he went through to save everyone.

The Flash also murdering someone in cold blood on the same day doesn't really bode well for him though. He might have some time off of his sentence, but it isn't worth it when his identity is revealed to every villain that he has ever caught.
