In my opinion the prosecutor, and all judges, prosecutors & cops like him should do at least 20 years in prison. At least there is a tiny bit of justice in this case.

Let's hope this keeps happening. There are more people who have been wrongly convicted. I'm a firm believer of "you do the crime, you do the time". However, when a person is wrongly convicted, there needs to be some kind of justice done.
A key point in this case is the prosecutor intentionally failed to disclose evidence at the original trial. Wrongfully convicted is one thing, but this was an outright miscarriage of justice.

Exactly. A prosecutor should not go to jail simply because he/she legitimately proved his/her case. The prosecutor does not make any decisions. You are tried among your peers.
What happened in this case is that the prosecutor broke the law. And as a result, is going to jail.

Right, a prosecutor who gets a conviction with all the evidence available to both the prosecution and defense is legal. Withholding evidence is a crime.

Where a prosecutor of police officer willfully breaks the law to secure a conviction, the should serve the same amount of time as the person who has been exonerated.

I don't think anyone would argue with that.
But, it should include the death penalty where that was the sentence.
In today's deal, Anderson pled to criminal contempt, and will have to give up his law license, perform 500 hours of community service, and spend 10 days in jail. Anderson had already resigned in September from his position on the Texas bench.
Uhhhhhh? This dude should seriously be doing no less than 25 years behind bars.
