No. The AG is not a prosecutor.

Is the AG bound by the American Bar Association's Rules of Professional Conduct for attorneys? Holder is, I believe, an attorney.

Or is he off the hook due to this technicality that he's not a "prosecutor" even though he manages and supervises every US attorney prosecutor?
