[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, OP, I’m sorry this happened to you. What most posters on this board need to understand is “no papering.” That’s when police make an arrest, but prosecutors decline to bring a case. This happens a lot in DC. It’s a particular problem here because it’s the US Attorney’s Office that decides whether to prosecute or “paper” a crime. The USAO is not accountable to the people of DC. In fact US Attorneys are appointed by the president. DC residents have sought information in the past about why crimes are not prosecuted and it’s taken FOIA’s and Senate support to get what minimal, unacceptable levels of data that the USAO’s office keeps. So, one step to improving this mess is statehood for DC.[/quote] So the city council and mayor have absolutely no recourse? They never meet with theattorneys, there is zero cooperation, they cant make a fuss?, [/quote]
