Federal appeals court judges are mad as hell, and they won’t take it any more. They say there’s an “epidemic” of misconduct by prosecutors in California courts.

Federal appeals court judges are mad as hell, and they won’t take it any more. They say there’s an “epidemic” of misconduct by prosecutors in California courts. Worse yet, district attorneys who lie and present false evidence are tolerated by state judges. The federal judges want to hold their feet to the fire.
