Yav, I disagree with you. Observing her and her combativeness, she did not seem like a witness simply taking the stand and saying what happened. She did NOT seem credible to me. Like cornered prey. As for her being in cahoots, as I mentioned in my initial statement above, there is nothing ipso facto surprising about a DA and a prosecutor being in cahoots about a criminal case. It is when sex, money and lies is added to the mix within the context of one of the most important prosecutions of the last few decades that the "cahoots" seems way more than the normal type you would expect to see between prosecuting team. And the statement that 'other people' are known to have slept (------) their way up the ladder is not a great defense either for the practice or the type of people who engage in it. It too does not instill confidence. Calling it "The American Dream" is a way of avoiding the entire point of whether there is an appearance of impropriety.
If you were arrested by a cop who you believed was dirty and dishonest and out to get, and then you learned the prosecutor that cop was able to choose to go after you in Court was the cop's lover about whom he had told lies about in the past in order to promote and help, you too would screaming that another prosecutor must be appointed. It stinks.
Factually, police are most likely to kill a mentally ill person in suicide-by-cop situation. And in 90+% of those cases most reasonable people would agree the killing was justified. Keep in mind, the decedent in those situations is seeking to place the cop in imminent danger so that there is no choice but to take the aggressor down. It is NOT a racial thing. I have seen it dozens of times.
