".. we've talked about this before, that when prosecutors are so bent on getting convictions and they view it as a win or a loss - you often see tv commentators used to be prosecutors bragging about their win loss ratio like they're pitchers vying for the cy young award and I've actually seen 'like i was undefeated I was undefeated' - you weren't playing a game you were trying cases and so the idea that you were undefeated means that you were either cherry picking cases or you were convicting innocent people because it is not possible that every case that crossed your desk was righteous that's just a mathematical fact ..

"Or consider Harris’s handling of appeals for release by innocent people in prison. In one case, her office argued against Daniel Larsen, who was proven innocent by the Innocence Project, because, Harris’s office claimed, he filed his petition for release far too late after a legal deadline. The court disagreed, allowing Larsen’s release in 2013. (In the New York Times, Bazelon listed several more such cases.)"
