And did I read where she had a 12 yr old stand trial as an adult?
Interested in you opinion on this.
Ok but the title was at first confusing as it makes one think that Corey is somehow involved in the Fletcher case.
What you’re saying to be clear is that the Fletcher case shows how a prosecutor can be held liable for misconduct. Thanks for the link.
But who would bring the suit against Corey?
I was a Chief Deputy Prosecutor when Kalina v. Fletcher was handed down. It does not say what your quick blurb says it does. Kalina holds that a prosecutor DOES have absolute immunity if they draft the Probable Cause affidavit, when the affidavit is signed by someone else. It is only when the prosecutor signs the affidavit themselves UNDER OATH that they lose full immunity and only receive qualified immunity.
This did not change any of the policies of my office at the time of the opinion. I had already determined that NO prosecutor was going to make a statement of probable cause under oath. That is for the police officer to do. Prosecutors are advocates, not witnesses.
I regularly conducted training sessions to police officers on how to write PC affidavits, and always cautioned them about false statements or writing misleading affidavits. I had two detectives terminated for fudging their PC affidavits, although the statements didn’t rise to the level of outright perjury. It was more for what they omitted than for what they said. I took sworn probable cause very seriously.
Now, I suppose that if there were a case where a plaintiff could prove that a prosecutor deliberately and knowingly suborned a perjured PC affidavit, they would lose their immunity. But a prosecutor willing to do such a thing is unfit for their job and should be compelled to do something else anyway.
Mark for later.
Star struck career climbers tend to ignore common sense. Corey belongs in prison.
The nutshell of this is while Corey claims absolute immunity in her position, the SCOTUS case points out
1 there’s never ever been ABSOLUTE immunity to judges, prosecutors, DAs, and
2, while generally what could be considered absolute immunity for these people only applies to them as they perform their functions to resolve disputes,
they only have qualified (limited) immunity whne it comes to making DISCRETIONARY policy decisions. If they make such decisions with malice and without probable cause, they can be held personally liable.
Basically otherwise they could railroad people by charging them on false charges or ignoring facts, omitting facts, false facts, and never be able to be gone after for doing so.
Angela Cory must be publicly burned at the stake, figuratively. We MUST make an example of this woman, so that OTHER Leftist activist attorneys can tell the mob: “Look what happened to poor Angela, wish I could help you but -—”

One of the questions that needs to be asked is when did the prosecution find out about those words: “creepy ass cracka”,
A “cracka” to Martin was/is a person acting like the police or a security guard.
Martin believed that he was running from the poooolice or security guard — aka “cracka”.
So then all this nonsense from the prosecution about Zimmerman having to identify himself as neighborhood watch was a red herring from the prosecution.
Does prosecutorial immunity cover going on GMA and calling GZ a murderer after he's been found not guilty and dismissed from the court?
I DON'T THINK SO.
