Answer 2

Answer:

The responsible for preparing a case against an accused in a criminal case is the prosecuting attorney.

Explanation:

The prosecutor, or prosecuting attorney, investigates crimes together with the police and is the one who has contact with the person suspected of the crime, the victim and witnesses.

The prosecutor judges whether there is sufficient evidence to bring the case to court: if it is a minor crime, and the suspect admits his or her guilt, the prosecutor imposes a fine. If an action is initiated there will be a trial in a court of law.

The task of the prosecutor is to prove that the suspect has committed the crime.
