Original Note:
This post demonstrates a profound misunderstanding of conflict of interest. Witnesses are not impartial, each is called by one side or the other. There is nothing wrong with a witness of the prosecution and/or their lawyer to side with the prosecutor against the defendant. https://www.scartelli.com/what-is-a-conflict-of-interest-in-criminal-law/
