Right, which are controlled by ", not the prosecutor".

Right, which are controlled by “, not the prosecutor”.

"It was the SS that ran the death camps, not us - besides, we were just doing our job!" - quite a few Gestapo boys at the end of WW2, probably.

Your point is irrelevant so that was the nicest reply I could think of.

It's only "irrelevant" to fascism sympathizers - so good job outing yourself.

Or anyone with a brain who doesn't equate a functioning legal system to the Nazis. Get lost idiot.

The prosecutor chooses which expert witnesses and evidence to use in court, Harris knew this witness and evidence were suspect, used them anyway to get convictions, and maintained the suspect evidence to keep people imprisoned when they should have been released.

The judge determines what evidence is allowed in court and not allowed.

Yes, and the DA determines what to bring to the judge. Harris knew the witness and evidence was comprimised and brought it anyway to get the conviction. Post conviction, she fought exculpatory evidence that would have seen people freed.
