Another example of prosecutorial misconduct
Prosecutorial misconduct is involved in many convictions of innocent people. Of course it also happens in the cases of persons who are probably guilty. However, it too rarely comes to light. Here, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit calls out the local U.S. Attorney's office. " The opinion goes on to discuss the dangers to the credibility of the court system when the government bets that its repeated discovery violations will either not be discovered, or as here, not result in a reversal."
