That's what they are paid to do. They dig for any possible angle to keep their client out of jail.
Prosecutors aren't much better, they will do anything to keep their conviction rate % up. They won't press charges against a huge scumbag if they might not get a conviction. They will destroy someone who didn't really do much if it's an easy case. Don't believe for a second that Prosecutors are looking out for the people. Most of them are looking to get a better job as a politician or get on a corporate retainer.
