Kerry graduated from law school in 1976, which means either May or August. He was admitted to the bar in 1976, and started working as a prosecutor in 1976. He went into private practice in 1979. So he was a prosecutor from Autumn 1976 to some unspecified date in 1978 - less than three years.

But his bio says he was a "top prosecutor" with important murder, rape and organized crime convictions.

If you really believe a brand new lawyer fresh out of law school was handling cases like that all by himself, you are naive.

He pads his resume. Some do, some don't. The ones who do say "everybody does it."

BTW, a Lexis-Nexis search for John Kerry cases in Massachusetts turns up nothing. I've got about half a dozen, pretty much every trial lawyer I know has a few, especially in criminal law. Why no appellate cases, John? What kind of prosecutor has no appeals?
