This is a great idea. Everyone should be aware of who their prosecutor is and what they will do for the community to keep it safe. The prosecutor is the gate tender to the Courts. Bail? The prosecutor makes recommendations to the Judge. Charges? The prosecutor takes cases to the Grand Jury. Pleas? The prosecutor makes plea offers. Sentencing?
