It's called blackmail.
Really old tactic, reserved for use by nasty people.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

"I must, however, make clear that this office’s conduct was appropriate in
bringing and handling this case."
40,000 of our fellow citizens disagree with
your power to arbitrarily decide
your actions were appropriate, Mrs. Ortiz.
Let's get an independent ruling
on the question.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

If you believe it is ok to threaten someone with 35 years in jail an a million
dollar fine for a crime you admit is only worthy of a 6 month sentence then you
have abused your prosecutorial power and should be removed.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

How the prosecutor could say, and I've seen it reported, that he was facing 35
years, is disingenuous at best, and just plain old lies towards the other end.
He was facing 13 felonies. Of which, I believe the judge might be constrained to
issue 5 years each. That's 65 years for doing nothing worse than entering a
closet he should have known better to enter, but was in no way delineated as
off-limits.
Maybe there's a more complicated math that would have capped it at 35. But with
thirteen felonies, that probably meets the three strikes law and he could have
gotten life. I'm not a lawyer, so maybe there's some nuance I'm missing.
Where's the crime? Srsly! To think he could have gone down in history as the man
who got 65 years ... for opening a door.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
