Expecting a jury for every misdemeanor is insane. That simply won’t happen.

It’s what the commission is recommending. USAO is not.

DC council is broken if this happens.

Didn’t this story break originally on NPR when the USAO openly stated concern with many of the proposed changes - this would have been about 6 months ago?

Seems … not smart to openly flout this type of feedback.

There’s a response in this thread with USO comments if you care to search for it. I found it interesting.
