Summary
The prosecutor’s position within the criminal justice system cannot be overstated. Robert Jackson, former United States Attorney General, who gained worldwide reputation through his role as Chief United States Prosecutor at the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg, remarked fully seventy-five years ago that: ‘The prosecutor has more control over life, liberty, and reputation than any other person in America.’ Prosecutors are ‘the criminal justice system’s real lawmakers’ and ‘the gatekeepers to the justice system’ system’, insofar as they make the crucial decisions about which individuals enter the criminal justice system and under what conditions they move through it.
