I understand the issue, but what happens when in fact the prosecutor acts in bad faith, is dishonest, corrupt or is weaponized against you? No recourse? Like the police, where their word is truth?
The job shouldn’t be cushy, you shouldn’t expect that success is predictable, or it becomes easy to game. Judges have been signing illegal warrants like candy. I’d say if it’s not systemic that prosecutors are put on the defense, then I’m ok with it.

Guy was pardoned because he could get to the president. Don’t think this happens often, but it’s worrying enough that maybe provisions should be added to pardons? Like sponsors should prove to not benefit in any way from this?
Just seems to me like unchecked privilege.
