That’s a breach of the ABA rules of professional conduct. It would likely result in the disbarment of the district attorney. Prosecutors can’t simply charge a suspect without evidence whenever they feel like it.
At best, the case gets dismissed during the preliminary hearing. At worst, it gets dismissed and the prosecutor is sent packing. Not saying it can’t happen, but it’s be an exception, not the norm.
BTW, police officers/detectives can only press charges against suspects of commiting misdimeanors. Only prosecutors can press charges for the big stuff.
