To date, eight states have passed bills regulating domestic drone use by government and private individuals. This leaves us with a question: If a city of more than 60,000 residents and a global company with a customer base in the hundreds of millions are racing to the sky, how are we as a commonwealth of 6.6 million to truly launch ourselves into the debate and protect what little privacy we have left?

The Prosecutor’S Contribution To Wrongful Convictions, Bennett L. Gershman
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Indeed, an overriding function of a prosecutor is to ensure that innocent people not get convicted and punished.
A prosecutor is constitutionally and ethically mandated to promote justice. The prosecutor is even considered a "Minister of Justice" who has …
