No. It's the prosecution's job to convince the jury to render a guilty verdict


I understand your point. However, even that isn't a prosecutors job.

The job of a public prosecutor is to do justice, not merely convict. If the evidence isn't there, the DA is supposed to drop or reduce the charges.

The prosecution in this case arguably didn't do that. They pursued a vendetta for political reasons.

As such, they failed in their ethical obligations.
