It's one thing to uphold an oath to zealously represent the state and the victim, but it's another to preemptively repudiate a fact finding effort. I feel it is much more about preservation of ego and judicial economy.
I don't agree on personal levels that what they are doing is right; I just believe it is them zealously representing the state and the victim- via the legal channels provided them. Of course you'll have bad apples, but...
Legal system isn't always all that cut and dried, you can't always go straight for the throat. Many of the big crime bosses and such were apparently brought down on tax evasion!
I'm sure there's been more than one time stymying a fact finding effort has helped send a guilty man to jail. It's not all cut and dried. I gather my views are unpopular, but hey, oh well.
