This has been explained to you about a hundred times already.

The District Attorney's Office is a crucial part of the criminal justice system.  Many of the problems that lead to protests are the way District Attorneys will protect law enforcement officers or their friends who kill black people.

The DA who ran the grand jury proceedings in Ferguson made a mockery of the system in order to protect Michael Brown's killer.  Even if that killing was justified people don't believe the outcome because of the way the DA rigged it.

I have said many times that the single biggest reform that could restore some trust to police officers would be to have an independent prosecutor that handles all case of alleged police misconduct.  There is just much of a conflict of interest between law enforcement and th DAs that they work with every day.  And I don't see how any law enforcement officer could object to an independent prosecutor unless they are depending on their buddies in the DAs office to protect them.
