Prosecutor Power
and impunity
Illuminating hidden Truths

Impunity
Definition:  exemption or freedom from punishment, harm, or loss 

The dangers of our corrupt prosecutorial system:

What happens to a prosecutor when malfeasance, incompetent supervision, and a “culture of conviction” exist in our court system? 
                      
 Usually Nothing!


 The prosecutor controls the justice system with their power to charge,  plea bargain,  set arraignment and hearing dates, and filings of motions, which in turn control the court.

The now  “shared powers” between our branches of government
have created the incestuous relationships between  judges and prosecutors that we now see in our court system.
 This “shared power” of collusion has undermined our justice system.

A most powerful position in public service is that of a prosecutor- the power with its given authority to not only ruin lives, but to end them as well.

The prosecutor has near immunity from liability and accountability of being derelict, incompetent,  malicious or other wrongful acts.
Tort reform is needed to bring accountability and justice to prosecutors who engage in unethical and/or illegal activities.

As sheriff Clarke asked, Are you in the game?

Well are you?
