Strengthening Justice: Strategies for Effective Prosecutor–Police Partnerships
Author: PERF
This report explores DA-driven initiatives that have the support of law enforcement members in their jurisdictions—programs that go beyond DAs merely reviewing cases presented by police and then offering plea bargains or prosecuting those cases in court.
