Answer 1:
It is personally believed by me that it is not satisfactory for the prosecutor to end the
evidence of guilt of defendant. It can say that it is because a prosecutor does work with the
individuals of a criminal justice system, accordingly by ending evidence a prosecutor will be

witnesses are deceitful.” It is a work of defense attorney to make sure that the client’s rights
are not being disrupted. The sixth amendment assures the every person has a right to give
