The Tokyo District Attorney's office special task force, investigating the Lumondo Corp. bribery has announced that they have questioned Sakichi Konuma president of Konuma Industries as a key witness

What do you think would've become of me if I'd stayed a prosecutor?

The DA's offering you 90 days in county jail if you plead no contest to two counts of theft from a body.

Tell us why you did it, and we'll ask the D.A. to take the death penalty off the table.

Because, well, the things that you've done, for which I have documentation-- witness tampering, accepting bribes, money laundering, to name a few-- these would not only subject you to state and federal prosecution,

The prosecution's evidence involves these photographs, specifically, exhibit 35.

I would like to remind the court, that it is the prosecutor who has the burden of proof and must prove beyond any reasonable doubt that my client is guilty.

(Applause) And I put in my motion that there was prosecutorial misconduct and police misconduct and judicial misconduct.

The police and the prosecution proceeded with a trial, and when Steve Titus was put on trial for rape, the rape victim got on the stand and said, "I'm absolutely positive that's the man."

When I became attorney general, I could look at the system as a whole, and what surprised me is that I found that that was exactly how we were doing it across the entire system -- in police departments, in prosecutors's offices, in courts and in jails.

We're now working on risk tools for prosecutors and for police officers as well, to try to take a system that runs today in America the same way it did 50 years ago, based on instinct and experience, and make it into one that runs on data and analytics.

What about the response of the prosecutors after the crisis, after 11 trillion dollars in losses, after 10 million jobs lost, a crisis in which the losses and the frauds were more than 70 times larger than the savings and loan debacle?

GH: In Guatemala, for instance, we've started a project there with the local police and court system, prosecutors, to retrain them so that they can actually effectively bring these cases.

I had no interest in being a public servant, I had no interest in criminal law, and I definitely didn't think that I would ever be a prosecutor.

These are decisions that prosecutors make every day unfettered, and we are unaware and untrained of the grave consequences of those decisions.

If prosecutors were a part of creating the problem, it's incumbent on us to create a solution and we can do that using other disciplines that have already done the data and research for us.

Every day, thousands of times a day, prosecutors around the United States wield power so great that it can bring about catastrophe as quickly as it can bring about opportunity, intervention, support and yes, even love.

But I remember walking into the room on the first day of class and seeing three black prosecutors and thinking to myself, "Wow, being a black prosecutor -- that's a thing!"

Midway through the course, Nick, a fellow incarcerated student, poured out his concern that the prosecutors were tiptoeing around the racial bias and discrimination within our criminal justice system.

And no, I don't remember who spoke first, but when Chauncey Parker, a senior prosecutor, agreed with Nick and said he was committed to ending the mass incarceration of people of color, I believed him.

As I talked, I could see the lights turning on for one prosecutor, who said something I thought was obvious: that I had transformed despite my incarceration and not because of it.

Seeing him, I thought about our days in the courtroom seven years earlier, as I listened to him recommend a long prison sentence, as if my young life was meaningless and had no potential.

Imagine with me for a second a future where no one can become a prosecutor, a judge, a cop or even a parole officer without first sitting in a classroom to learn from and connect with the very people whose lives will be in their hands.
