Many with sincere interests in reforming the criminal legal system have excitedly traced the success of candidates styling themselves as progressive prosecutors. Although located throughout the country, these progressive prosecutors share a geographic commonality—they generally hail from large cities or urban metroplexes.

Meanwhile, in the rural reaches of the country, disproportionate contact between police and minorities has increased. In rural jurisdictions, incarceration rates have increased, and prosecutors have seemingly become less reform minded. This Article casts suspicion on progressive prosecution.
