[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a prosecutor, so it varies. SVU is pretty accurate in its portrayal of prosecutors. The biggest misconception I see on TV is that witnesses and victims are very respectful toward prosecutors and are generally thankful and cooperative with us. None of that is true. I was treated with more respect when I waited tables.[/quote] Prosecutor too and I agree for the most part. My biggest problem with our portrayal on TV is that everyone thinks we have a huge budget, thinks we will have DNA, fingerprints, confessions, videos, and that this will all be presented within an hour. The reality is that most forensic evidence testimony is terribly dry and boring and most of our cases have little physical evidence at all. [/quote]
