The Prosecution

The Prosecution Team…

The Prosecutions main aim within the court case is to prove the defendant guilty and for the individual be charged with the crime. Their responsibilities also include making sure no innocent person is found guilty and sentenced. In cases the prosecution will argue with the defence and state the facts and evidence proving the guilt of the defendant. The prosecution can also place the defendant upon the witness stand and question them in front of the jury and judge. Their role is to present the evidence and facts produced from the researches and science team. The police are required to pass their notes over to the prosecution team and these can also be used within a court room.   


The prosecution team within the OJ Simpson case…

The prosecution team within the trail of the murders of Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman consisted of Marcia Clark, Christopher Darden and Gil Garcetti. During the 137 day trial the prosecution pushed and pushed for the defendant OJ to be found guilty using the endless incriminating evidence against him however the final outcome was that OJ Simpson was acquitted from the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. Like the defence the Prosecution team had a more dominant member this was Marcia Clark, her most memorable moments within the investigation was when questioning OJ Simpson about the blood evidence within the court room. Clark also argued with the defence surrounding the domestic violence attacks pursued by OJ Simpson preformed upon his wife Nicole days before she was brutally murdered.

Prosecution Team within other cases…

Unlike the defence there will always be a prosecution team as it is appointed by the government and without the prosecution a trial would not occur. The Roles and responsibilities of the prosecution team does not change during different cases however the content and context of the trial may be different. Every crime committed will produce different evidence therefore different arguments will occur within court depending upon the case.
