I’m not defending her conduct. But Judge Garbis, according to the summary, said that while prosecutorial immunity is absolute, it does not apply to the investigation phase. That distinction does not make sense to me. Part of a prosecutor’s job is investigation. And remember that legal principles have a way of boomeranging. Today, Mosby is under the microscope. Tomorrow, it may be a conservative prosecutor.
Sirnapsalot explains it properly in post 18. She threw them under the bus well before all the evidence had been collected or there had been a trial. That is prosecutorial misconduct. It's very similar to Nifong in the Duke lacrosse case. Nifong was disbarred and found liable for civil damages. Hopefully, Mosby will suffer the same fate.
