Prosecutors are chaos agents.
They usually wield their unaccountable power against “easy targets”—the game is scoring wins, and wins are easiest to score against poor people, people without power, and people who are widely disliked, if not hated.
The role of the prosecutor is political top to bottom, which doesn’t mean they don’t occasionally deliver something like justice.
But Justice should be the main product of a Justice System, not merely a happy accident.
