Having the unfettered discretion to charge or not to charge a person with a crime is the greatest power wielded by any one person in the criminal justice system. The inequalities people complain about are often the direct result of the manner in which prosecutors choose to exercise that discretion. Prosecutors don't think alike, and the practices vary wildly from prosecutor to prosecutor across the state. Gary R.

They will not be answered. I think most of us who are aware of the way our system really operates are not surprised. The system as it is designed exists to defend the 1%. <br /><br />What happened to the Drugs Irsay had in possession?? Who prescribed them or were they made by the local equivalent Breaking Bad's Walter White. <br /><br /><br />The Star asks these questions now. Why did take so long for the Star to ask these questions?? I suspect The Star sat on this story until after the Stupor Bowl Bid was made. Likewise I thing the Organs of State Security in Hamilton County followed the same script. It makes you wonder who else in the 1% our "Justice System" is offering Protection for.
