Prosecutor Profile: |
|
Caren scores big on the death penalty reversals chart – all of them
for jury selection errors. In the case of Edward Harris, she
exclaimed that “He's a single black male on the [jury] panel... He
was black... and I don’t want him identifying with the defendant.”
Such shameful conduct deserved special mention in a recent report on
misconduct by local prosecutors.
Following her failed bid for the local bench, she headed for New York
where she now works in the DA’s office. |
