It is possible for prosecutors to lie in court and get away with it...right? At the very least trick the jury or judge before they know it.?
There was a letter in the mail about jury duty, and my brother says "I want a case where someone is murdered because it is more interesting."
That was followed by how the court really works and how you don't pick your cases. Then he proceeds to say "All the jury has to look through is the defendant's claim, it's not that hard to make the right decision."
I instantly realized that my brother is extremely ignorant about how the court works, especially if he thinks that making decisions are easy.
Anyway, if you can, please provide some examples of cases where prosecutors deliberately lie or do some tampering which leads to false convictions.
I know it's possible, but my brother claims that it would be impossible for the prosecutor to lie and mislead the jury or the judge into making a bad decision. They would check the "file" and see that things aren't adding up.
