[quote=Anonymous]The bifurcated system created by the Home Rule law creates a situation where everyone can point fingers at other players w/o accountability. USAO can say it's forensics lab, Council, MPD. MPD can say it's Council and USAO. Bowser can say it's Council, etc. Players for those unfamiliar: Bowser has control over forensics lab and MPD Council writes laws and controls MPD funding MPD makes arrests of juv and adults Forensics lab is basis for crimes prosecuted by USAO and AG AG elected in DC, prosecutes juv crime Superior Court judges are appointed by President, apply laws written by DC Council President appoints USAO and Sup Ct judges, proposed DOJ budget (USAO staff and courts) Congress approves DOJ budget (USAO staff and courts) and has oversight over DOJ including USAO [/quote]
