As courts around the world become more active in convicting politicians for corruption, politicians have increasingly responded by appointing partisan judicial actors in the hope of securing judicial protection. Does this strategy lead to partisan bias in corruption investigations? We address this question by analyzing prosecutorial behavior in all corruption probes filed in Comodoro Py—Argentina's most prominent federal court circuit—between 2013 and 2023.
