Prosecutorial Discretion is the path to Tyranny

Introducing STOLEN JUSTICE . US

Every position in government answers to someone higher. Every. Single. Position. Except one.

Elected officials answer to the voters. The President answers to the States. Appointed officials normally answer to the elected official who provided their job.

Not so with one dictatorial, tyrannical position.

The Prosecutor.

If a local Prosecutor is directly elected by the people, the shroud of secrecy involved in criminal prosecutions prohibits the voter from ever knowing whether that person has abused his or her authority. But there is still, with the right sunlight, the ability to remove a prosecutor who abuses that position.

Not so for the federal government.
