LOL at DA/Prosecution gunners! Forum

[lawbanshee]

Gotta LOL at the fools who think they're going to be DA's and lock up bad guys a la Jack McCoy.

Some towns are so broke that they aren't even bothering to indict wifebeaters anymore:

Thus, for those of you who say "what are we gonna do, just stop having a justice system?," the answer is yes.

How is this LOL at people who want to be an ADA or AUSA? This isn't LOL at all, but is ridiculous if you live in Topeka.

Um, dude, the AUSA now pays a salary of 0 dollars:

Note that while a NJ article, they do this all across the country. There's an indefinite hiring freeze per the article.


It's a trend, as the article notes, for government jobs in law to basically only staff unpaid volunteers going forward. No use paying a salary when the glut is so bad people beg to work for free.
HTH

Reading comp fail. They are "hired," but there is a salary of 0 dollars.
