Deliberately hiding evidence should should equate to hefty prison time for a prosecutor.

In known history, I think there has been perhaps one prosecutor charged with a crime over this. How about that for a statistic?

From my experience it is literally impossible to report a crime made by a prosecutor.

Hiding evidence might not even be a crime in many jurisdictions. In the USA it would be a constitutional violation, but that rarely makes it a crime because violating the constitution rarely becomes criminal unless violence is involved.
