I mean not really? It’s how the system should work. Prosecution deliberately misfiled evidence so the defence couldn’t access it. - mafic Jul 12, 17:08 12
- Shouldn't the system work in a way that any officer of the court - especially a *judge* - can see that you have evidence someone was possibly responsible -- (edited) - Max Jul 12, 17:17 11
  - he's not saying "not my job" he's saying "the prosecution screwed up so badly I can't salvage anything." -- nm - mafic Jul 12, 17:32 2
    - I'm not saying salvage anything related to Baldwin, I'm saying what the article lays out makes it sound like Teske should be potentially charged. -- nm - Max Jul 12, 17:37 1
      - Because nobody has heard of him. How are you going to advance your career prosecuting people nobody knows? - the wrong element Jul 12, 20:35
  - the problem with Brady material (usually) is it only encompasses evidence that is exculpatory to the defendant. so then prosecutors have to decide - hollywood big shot Jul 12, 17:25 6
    - To reframe what I'm saying above, if it's not the judge's job, why is he suddenly responsible for determining that the bullets are exculpatory -- (edited) - Max Jul 12, 17:49 3
      - Because the judge's job is to rule on questions of law, not prosecute crimes. -- nm* - znufrii Jul 12, 18:19
      - I guess on the procedural question because it’s not the judge’s job to make the decision, but it is the judge’s job to review any decision they make. -- nm - mafic Jul 12, 18:10
      - Best guess is it directly contradicts the prosecution’s story about where they came from, which is part of how they’re framing responsibility. -- nm - mafic Jul 12, 18:07
    - prosecution decided to file the evidence under a different case so the defence would never find it. - mafic Jul 12, 17:36 1
      - By filing it under a different case they didn't have to turn it over to the defense or let them know it even existed. -- nm - . Jul 12, 22:26
  - The onus is on the prosecution to play by the rules, which state the defendant is innocent until proven guilty. By playing fast and loose - Will Hunting Jul 12, 17:23
