1) How much authority should assistant district attorneys be given? As licensed attorneys should they be given a large amount of discretion to dispose of cases based on their best judgment or should they have more limited authority so that the office employs a uniform policy?
2) If you had been arrested, which would you rather have: a private lawyer or a public defender? Why? And, would your answer change depending on whether you were guilty or innocent?
