Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed a new law establishing the Prosecuting Attorneys Qualifications Commission, which will be able to remove prosecutors who do not follow state laws. The new initiative rivets the powers of elected prosecutors and risks threatening the separation of powers between the judiciary and the executive branch. The law which seeks to create safer communities by discouraging prosecutors from going easy on criminals has sparked outrage and disapproval from Democrats who claimed the law is an unnecessary commission since prosecutors had already been held accountable under existing regulations. The issue of using prosecutorial discretion has been a contentious matter across the country, with several states such as Florida, Indiana, Missouri and Pennsylvania seeking to remove prosecutors they believe are not doing their job. Moreover, the new Georgia law mandates that prosecutors have to consider every case brought before them regardless of the gravity of the offense. However, legal experts claim that this could cause a flood of low-level cases, making it difficult for prosecutors to consider each case individually.
