First describe Prosecutor discretion (Chapter 6, pgs. 171-173) and Prosecutorial Immunity (Chapter 6, pgs. 187-188). Why are these important and helpful to Prosecutors? Prosecutors work alongside police everyday arguing officer created cases in court and trying to get convictions.

Is there a way to change this?
