Prosecutors have enormous discretion and therefore power within the criminal legal system.
Prosecutor misconduct is real, and the costs are significant.
DA Accountability and Transparency
CAAPV wants to:
-
Inform judges and prosecutors regarding discovery obligations,
-
Have real consequences if required disclosure of those obligations is concealed,
-
Implement enhanced accountability measures at a state level,
-
Ensure transparency with the production of policies and data regarding charging and sentencing decisions, and
-
Eradicate absolute and qualified prosecutorial immunity.
