Hard to say. While mismanagement in the prosecutor's office could be the one and only cause of the problem, I suspect there are other factors involved. Even the best manager can be stymied if not given the proper tools. What was Ms. Svoboda given to work with when she took office?

I imagine she got the same as any other prosecutor who might have been elected to the job. We have way too much crime in this county and having a prosecutor who can't keep up might be making the problem even worse. Without real consequences for committing crimes, they will most certainly continue. I'm sure the local defense attorneys are well aware of this issue and would take advantage at every opportunity.

I think she is doing fine. I think the Judge got his knickers in a knot.

Perhaps, but it seems quite unusual for a judge to be making such a public rebuke to a prosecuting attorney.

Pretty much. I really like Judge Edwards, but I don't understand this.

You supported her before she was elected, so I'm not surprised that you continue to support her. I will admit that she did inherit problems from her predecessor, but I don't see those problems getting resolved, and obviously, either does Judge Edwards.

I do. But, my comments are more about process, because...

I don't recall Edwards or any other judge publicly calling out the former prosecutor or any other elected official and suggesting they resign. It's wrong.
