Paywalled. Disappointing because the first part of it that I got to read was interesting.

HN has a proper link.

Archive.is version for completeness.

There's also the fact that it's posted on Jesse Singal's shingle as well, which should give anyone pause given his history. (I'm also wondering if this is posted in response to the whole mess with the behavior of the public defenders in the Parkland shooting trial as well.)

That said, the point about the justice system being centered around prosecutors is worth noting, because that's where a lot of what's wrong with it stems from. If we're going to have an adversarial legal system, we need to stop putting a whole hand on one side of the scale.
