Prosecutorial Accountability | The Justice Project

Prosecutorial Accountability The Justice Project: "Prosecutors are arguably the most powerful figures in the American criminal justice system. Prosecutors decide which charges to bring, what plea bargain to offer, and what sentence to request. Their decisions have far-reaching consequences on defendants, victims, their respective families, and the general public. Given the special duties of prosecutors, and the broad power they exercise in the criminal justice system, it is critical that prosecutors discharge their duties responsibly and ethically."THE IRISH"REASONS"PROJECT?

"This same industry has been droning on about every detail of its uncomfortably self-indulgent gasps from beyond the grave for at least 10 years. At first, the thought was outrageous. Could it really be possible that an institution (sometimes) devoted to uncovering the substance of everyday life might give way (even more) to corporate stranglehold? Would its duty to document what matters (for the most part) really succumb to an idiotic crustiness, a stubborn resistance to change? Yes to both. And how."
