How does qualified immunity and absolute immunity operate in the prosecution context?

What will be an ideal response?


Absolute immunity frustrates the purpose of civil rights legislation by failing to deter frequent and egregious misconduct. It also hinders the development of constitutional standards and the implementation of structural solutions for systemic problems. Prosecutorial liability with the safeguard of qualified immunity to prevent vexatious litigation is necessary to ensure the integrity of the criminal justice system
