[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the complaining about 'liberal' prosecutors - where are the 'conservative' prosecutors? What great criminal prosecution successes did Miyares have in 4 years? Are there no repeat offenders in red districts? While there are certainly bleeding-heart politics that play into sentencing guidelines (for example), what is your average workaday county or state prosecutor supposed to do when in the vast majority of cases, they can find no credible witnesses, maybe the victim doesn't even want to testify, and their caseload is completely unmanageable overall?

Re: the Glyer case - my understanding is the perpetrator is going to be confined to an institution indefinitely. Is the victim's family upset because they wanted the death penalty? Clearly the guy wasn't of sound mind, he believed he was 'freeing' the wife from her husband and that she'd run away with him. Frankly, I think their mutual church should be prosecuted for ignoring years of warning signs about the guy and making it the wife's responsibility to manage his feelings...[/quote]

Miyares wasn't the CWA for Fairfax County?[/quote]

I was looking around for a quasi-local "conservative" govt. attorney. I actually do believe more perpetrators should be imprisoned - and for longer - than they currently are, but all I see from the right-leaning side is a lot of vitriol against immigrants and an abject failure to prosecute white collar criminals and men accused of SA, and then there's the nightmare that is our nation's for-profit prison system. I also believe local police forces in the DC metro area are refreshingly apolitical, so who do we have to thank for our politicized our court system?[/quote]
