I know of a case where the defendant was before the Court for a 12th DUI. The prosecutor moved to dismiss the charge outright, and then tried to inform the Judge that since the prosecutor and defense attorney agreed to the dismissal, the Judged had no authority to reject the agreement. The Judge said nothing doing. So the prosecutor went to another Judge and got it dismissed. Then a 19 year old on meth and some other drug and .05% (the test after jaws of life extraction and careflight) was allowed to plead to Minor with Any BAC. He had hit a car head on. The victims sustained life altering injuries. The maximum penalty is 360 hours of community service and a fine. And he was already on probation for a DUI in another county. The “system” isn’t broken. It is full of people who forget their duties.
Too many powerful politicians’ children getting caught, I’d guess.
