Panel Emphasizes Need For Prosecutorial Oversight

TEXAS INJUSTICE: 91 Cases Of Prosecutor Misconduct, No Discipline

Although courts have confirmed that prosecutorial misconduct occurred in 91 Texas criminal cases between 2004 and 2008, not a single prosecutor among those has ever been disciplined for their misbehavior, according to new data compiled by the Innocence Project. (Allegations of prosecutor misconduct were raised in another 124 cases, but those issues were not ruled on by any court.)
