Yes, there is an oath of office that goes with becoming a prosecutor. Though it no doubt varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, it basically requires the prosecutor to faithfully execute his duties and to uphold the constitution of the state where he works and the Constitution of the United State of America. The obligation to do and seek justice is frequently included and that gives the prosecutor the duty to represent the interests of all the people, which includes those accused of crimes as well as the victims. It is different from any other job of a lawyer, in that a prosecutor's duty is to justice as opposed to being focused on zealously advocating for a particular client.
