Such aggressive prosecution has a lot do with the elected nature of sheriffs and DA's, a peculiarity of the US system. The political nature of enforcement and prosecution seems to change incentives towards maximizing conviction rates and publicity of high-profile convictions... sometimes it would seem at the expense or beyond what would be optimal for society or the crime. |
