I think *most* prosecutors do uphold the letter of the law.
Unfortunately, though, more than a few don't. I've thought that if
some
innocent bozo spends time in jail because of prosecutor malfeasance,
if
caught, the prosecutor should spend at least an equal time in the can.
Railroading an innocent, for what is generally no more than political
ambition, is in my mind a high crime.


Well, it happens all the time.

No, it doesn't happen *all* the time. It happens far less that you'd
probably believe.

It happens as much as harry takes rides in his 36' lobsta boat
