1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,900
You know, the power I have as a prosecutor is that with a swipe of my pen,

2
00:00:04,580 --> 00:00:10,180
I can charge someone with a misdemeanor, the lowest level offense possible.

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:17,340
And by virtue of that swipe of my pen, you will have to go to a courthouse and stand in line.

4
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,180
You will have to come out of pocket and hire an attorney.

5
00:00:20,580 --> 00:00:22,380
You may get arrested for a few hours.

6
00:00:22,660 --> 00:00:24,980
You will be embarrassed in your community.

7
00:00:25,420 --> 00:00:28,460
You will miss time from coming onto the Google campus.

8
00:00:29,060 --> 00:00:32,880
All because with a swipe of my pen, I've charged you with a crime,

9
00:00:33,060 --> 00:00:35,000
which I may choose to dismiss two weeks later.

10
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,200
It's an incredible amount of power.
