Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
When did we start granting prosecutors the power to declare guilt or innocence on the accused?

I wasn't aware that was the job of a prosecutor. I always thought that if the prosecutor believed that a crime had been committed and he felt he had the evidence to bring about a conviction then his job was to charge the person with that crime and bring it to trial or obtain a plea.
When did we start granting prosecutors the ability to declare someone innocent? Isn't everyone innocent until proven guilty? Why the fuck does Mueller get to have it both ways?

“Mueller muddied the waters by suggesting that his crooked special counsel of angry Democrats could NOT find that President Trump DID NOT commit a crime.
Historically in America before 2018 it was required of a prosecutor to PROVE that a crime was committed by the defendant”.
“On Wednesday dirty cop Robert Mueller used this new legal tradition on President Trump. He could not prove that President Trump committed a crime. But in his report he suggested Trump committed a crime anyway.
Following Robert Mueller’s statement former Federal Prosecutor Fred Tecce went on FOX Business Network and tore into the crooked special counsel.
Fred Tecce: Quite frankly, I find Mr. Mueller’s comments reprehensible. The part that bothers me the most is the bedrock for our system of justice is that people are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise beyond a reasonable doubt… I think what he did today really was one of the most political things I’ve ever seen a prosecutor do and I am deeply disappointed in the Justice Department for his conduct… These comments are nothing more than chum in the water for Democrats.
Mueller proved again today that the US Department of Justice is a corrupt, criminal outfit.”
