Prosecutors and Pot Brownies

As prosecutors we are bound by what the law is, not what the law should be or could be.

Instead of smearing Jacob’s name all over the place, I wish journalists would take the criminal justice system to task and pour some sunlight on the people that took a busybody neighbor’s complaint and turned it into a jail sentence for baking brownies that many of us would like to be eating right now because they sound really good.
