Publisher Description
Depicting American justice at its best and worst, The Prosecutors lifts the lid off today’s legal system with details that are more shocking and graphic than any television show or bestselling novel. Allowed unprecedented access inside an urban prosecutors’ office, Gary Delsohn provides a riveting, behind-the-scenes look at how America’s increasingly overburdened judicial system really functions. Seen through the eyes of John O’Mara, a tough, jaded homicide chief and Jan Scully, an accomplished former sex-crimes prosecutor who is now the DA, The Prosecutors shows us these dedicated public servants at work.

" Interesting cases, but not strong writing on my opinion. You can tell he normally writes short newspaper stuff "

" Overall this was a decent book but very uneven. Some of the cases were interesting and I think it gave a pretty decent but limited idea of the inner workings of the criminal division of the Sacramento DA's Office. There are probably several better books on this general subject. "
