The County Attorney shall attend the terms of court in his county below the grade of district court, and shall represent the state in all criminal cases under examination or prosecution in said county; and in the absence of the district attorney he shall represent the state alone and, when requested, shall aid the district attorney in the prosecution of any case in behalf of the state in the district court. He shall represent the state in cases he has prosecuted which are appealed.

It shall be the primary duty of all prosecuting attorneys, including any special prosecutors, not to convict, but to see that justice is done. They shall not suppress facts or secrete witnesses capable of establishing the innocence of the accused.
