Agreed. However, the circumstances surrounding this particular instance reek of dubious ethics and political pandering. Yates handled this badly, from a professional stand point, so she could score political points and likely a future job. That kind of grandstanding, whether it's from the DA in Ben's second case, Mosby or Yates will always earn the condemnation of people in the criminal justice system that actually take their job seriously.
