Pro-prosecution precedents

Pro-prosecution precedents are legal decisions, typically at the level of the U.S. Court of Appeals or U.S. Supreme Court, that support nearly unlimited federal prosecutorial power. These decisions reinforce the virtual political police state in the United States, which in practice serves to expand the power of the Deep State in unjust ways.
