I don't blame the USA's for not taking cases. Every administraton since Eisenhower has let the problem fester. Now we have far more cases than the USA's can possibly handle. The AUSA's get crapped on just like the rest of us while their buddies in the private sector make four times what they make in salary.
I don't blame then for that either, I blame them for listing to the DD.
The AUS does not work for the DD and should be able to decide which cases his staff should take.
That's my beef.
Stay safe.
