We still have a few "thoughts" about this debate . . . We might share those later because we'd like to know where readers see this debate going.
For now . . .
Here's follow-up after armed weekend protest informed us that more strident urban advocates don't see the political distinctions betwixt police vs. the prosecutor that have dominated the mainstream news discussion for the past few months.

ReplyDeleteTOP PHOTO -- THE PETERS PRINCIPLE
ReplyDeleteJACO Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker
2018 Statistics (most recent year available)
https://www.jacksoncountyprosecutor.com/213/Statistical-Data-and-Reports
Cases Received = 6860
Cases Filed = 4981
Cases Closed = 3411
Of the 3407 Cases Disposed of in 2018:
2296 pled guilty = 67%; the prosecutor's office typically negotiates down the charges in order to secure a guilty plea
635 cases were dismissed = 19%
279 cases were entered into diversion = 8%
113 cases were recorded as Other = 3% (assume the defendant was not incarcerated)
51 cases resulted in a guilty verdict by judge or jury = 1.5%
19 cases resulted in fugitive filings with the prosecutor's office losing contact with defendant = less than 1%
14 cases resulted in a not guilty verdict by judge or jury = less than 1%
So in 2018, Jean Peters Baker's office only took 65 cases to trial (that's less than 2%), and lost 22% of these trials.
Peters Principle
DEFINITION: the principle that members of a Democratic Party are promoted until they reach the level at which they are no longer competent***
