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.



And beyond that, like unprofessional babies, the prosecution team denied the verdict in their press conference directly after-the-fact, angrily insisted that Zimmerman is guilty, undermined the justice system and the verdict, and directly contributed to incidents of whites beaten in at least 4 states (so far) where the black mob said "this is for Trayvon".
