A new report says that a stunning 95 percent of elected prosecutors in the U.S. are white and that more than 60 percent of the nation’s 50 states have exactly zero black prosecutors in office. The study found that, of the 2,437 elected prosecutors serving around the country, which includes officials at the state and local levels, just 61 are black—and of those, more than half are concentrated in Virginia and Mississippi. In 14 states, all elected prosecutors are white.
