"We will never be perfect –
no system that relies on the judgment, reliability, and honesty of mortal human beings can ever be so. But it is not
enough to accept a particular tolerance level for error in the system; we must work to prevent practices that can lead to
injustice."
--King County (WA) Prosecutor (1978-2007), Norm Maleng
