Washtenaw County Prosecutors and Police

The Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office is almost militant in its prosecution of cases regardless of whether there is substantial evidence of a person’s guilt. When potential new clients come to meet with us for the first time, we are frequently asked, “Why are they going after me like this?” The truth is that they go after all cases like they are capital offenses. Although it may seem like this is a good thing for Washtenaw County residents, the downside is tragic. Often, innocent people are wrongfully charged, and people are overcharged in Washtenaw County. The Washtenaw County Prosecutor is very reluctant to consider any possibility that a charge may be incorrect.
