Really fricked up that the 6th amendment has been thrown out. Is the prosecutor going to face charges for denying him his right?

I doubt the prosecutor will face anything, the other defendant in the case when home after arraignment, Browder was on probation, is why he had a bond. As far as the 6th amendment did his attorney raise this issue at all?

The blame is not completely on the prosecutors with these types of issues. Judges and defense attorneys can be just as much to blame if not more as explained below.
Just like its always easy to blame the cops for issues without looking at the whole story, this problem is the same.

The problem is compounded by defense attorneys who drag out cases to improve their odds of winning, judges who permit endless adjournments, prosecutors who are perpetually unprepared



Also, having 5,965 felonies to prosecute in one year is a serious backlog on the courts. The shame is that the state allows this one court to have a backlog that big and not bring in help with more judges and lawyers.
