@gregebrown Good point. If a prosecutor puts innocent people in prison, then even if the prosecutor technically works for the citizenry I don't see how we the citizens "won" anything.

@davidoltmans2725 I agree about screening out the unfit cops. Civilization already does that - not only is recruitment more stringent but so are the police academies. But that's how civilization does things, and the US has openly held civilization in contempt for at least 40 years.

I agree that ideally the taxpayers shouldn't have to foot the bill for a prosecutor's wrongdoing but, if it falls out that way, don't forget it's the public that elects DAs so the public is ultimately responsible for their wrongdoing. An analogy: If your kid smashes up somebody's car you don't get to shrug off the cost because you didn't do it personally; at the end of the day your kid is your responsibility.
