Advice for first-year prosecutor
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2015 12:41 pm
I'm about to start a job at a local prosecutor's office. Does anyone have any advice for me as a newbie, fledgling prosecutor? Not sure how much training I will receive, but I understand most offices that do give training usually don't train as to running a courtroom, plea negotiations, the tug of war in setting cases ready for trial, etc. Any advice/stories appreciated.
Please no "don't send innocent people to jail for a victimless crime" derailment. This is not a thread about criticizing prosecutors or how much you hate them.
