Date: November 26th, 2014 3:00 PM Author: Brilliant multi-colored step-uncle's house Ok, as a prosbro, do you think a prosecutor should have the discretion to (a) not charge, or (b) present evidence to a grand jury in the manner not likely to lead to a charge, if he thinks the case is unwarranted and/or unwinnable?

A ProsBro should not bring a case to trial that he does not believe can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
It is ridiculously reckless and a waste of tax payer resources to bring a case to trial just so a victim can have their "day in court"
Fuck that, if you don't believe in the case, put it up to a Grand Jury and lay EVERYTHING OUT, so people can get a preview of how weak the case is. |

Date: November 26th, 2014 9:43 PM Author: Fragrant pit generalized bond (b) assumes the ProsBro presented the evidence in a selective fashion so that only certain pieces of evidence would be viewed.
60 individual witnesses isn't very "selective" |

Date: November 26th, 2014 10:57 PM Author: Brilliant multi-colored step-uncle's house If the case is shitty with substantial exculpatory evidence, then presenting all the evidence is not going to get you an indictment (whereas presenting only the inculpatory evidence would).
So, doing what the Ferguson prosbros did is presenting the evidence to the grand jury in a manner not likely to secure an indictment. If they had wanted an indictment, they could have just presented the witnesses that said Brown didn't do anything threatening.

Why? |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:02 PM Author: Brilliant multi-colored step-uncle's house No. I'm not saying they should. I'm asking your opinion as a prosbro and a card carrying member of the worldwide shitlib menace. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2739938&forum_id=2#26808057) |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:06 PM Author: Fragrant pit generalized bond Yes, ProsBros should have the power to control what they do and do not bring to trial.
As a ShitLib, I understand the hurt and frustration that my brethren are feeling due to these turn of events.

The real shame in this whole nonsense is that it went to GJ at all. McC should have read the report and said there is nothing here and I'm not wasting another second on this. |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:32 PM Author: hairless rehab That's kinda his job to take that shit. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2739938&forum_id=2#26808320) |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:33 PM Author: Fragrant pit generalized bond That's his job, but he's still an elected official.
He's not stupid.
At least now he can shift the blame to the Grand Jury and say, "Look, the PUBLIC made this decision after hearing ALL THE EVIDENCE!" |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:38 PM Author: hairless rehab The better play would have been to read the self defense statute at the presser.
Felony in progress or just happened = deadly force ok.
If you don't like it vote for state legislators to change the law. |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:45 PM Author: Opaque marketing idea hall wait, THAT would have been the "better play"? are you literally the worst legal strategist who ever lived? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2739938&forum_id=2#26808422) |

Date: November 26th, 2014 11:49 PM Author: hairless rehab I'm drunk posting. Who fucking knows what they right play would have been. Certainly something better than this. A charade GJ really bothers me. He needed to have the courage to turn the case down. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2739938&forum_id=2#26808451) |

Date: November 27th, 2014 12:01 AM Author: Brilliant multi-colored step-uncle's house I'm wondering if that would have been worse, if this is worse, or if it would be worse after a not guilty verdict. Not sure if it would have made any difference at all. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2739938&forum_id=2#26808537) |

Whites would've been looking for blood on an obviously weak case. |
