Prosecutors

Recent complaints about police have brought up the subject of prosecutors. It is supposed to be the job of the district attorney (prosecutor) to search out the truth but in modern times this has changed to getting a conviction. Prosecutors are rewarded based on convictions and this often leads to higher office. When prosecutors used shady or illegal means it is difficult to confront them. If a committee wants to investigate a prosecutor they must get permission from the prosecutors office. If there is wrong doing it will be difficult to get permission.
