    Prosecutors are like cops more than they are different. They work with them day to day. They have the power to charge the bad ones with crimes, but they rarely do, and even then they often overcharge or put up a poor case so the cop goes free. They also overcharge people to force plea deals and avoid trials. This goes double for those who can’t afford bail and have to spend years in jail waiting for a trial. Prosecutors are every bit as bad and corrupt as the police.
