Watching Law & Order, you see how prosecution works, at least on a surface level, but how is it different in the U.K.? Or is it more or less the same?

Wait what? US judges are elected without the law setting any requirements? So goat farmer John can run for county judge despite not having any legal education?
Not just judges! Also the coroner! Think about what kind of nasty shit goes down when the government lies about when someone dies. Many small towns across the US had that issue in the 1900s, so a lot of states replaced the position with a medical examiner (requires an actual medical degree to be licensed).
