    You’re getting downvoted, but one does have to ask why a prosecuter would do something like this knowing it would get the case thrown out.

      I don’t think she planned on getting caught. This was a once in a lifetime case for her. Securing a conviction would elevate her career substantially. It’s not unprecedented for prosecutors to engage in this kind of misconduct.

      That said, most Brady violations are from incompetence rather than malice. Tons of evidence–not just exculpatory–has been lost by poorly trained or lazy investigators.

      Considering how weak a lot of gun charges are to minorities, who then spend decades in jail for bullshit, yea this smells like someone got paid.
