A lady (not sure who) asked hypothetical —
what if government receives DNA evidence that clears someone and prosecution decides to drop the case - is it appropriate to take 7 weeks to decide whether to drop case?

Answer — the person representing Sullivan says yes and is arguing that its OK and depends on circumstances.

LOL

Sullivan's lawyer:

Wilkens up. He wants to know what the public interest factors are that the district court could explore. WB says not second guessing the prosecutor, but things like judicial integrity in the process.— Leslie McAdoo Gordon (@McAdooGordon) August 11, 2020

And you got to ask: "What prosecutor?" Is she saying the judge is also the prosecutor, or is the amici going to act as prosecutor? Hangman as well?
