Sam thinks Mason should go to prison for what he did. A prosecutor is someone who conducts a case against a defendant in court, so here, against Mason. If prosecutors do their job right, Mason will end up in jail for at least five years. If he doesn't, that means the prosecutors didn't do their job right/something went wrong. In the sentence you highlighted, Sam says she will not let it slide if prosecutors screw up and Mason doesn't go to jail for this reason.

"he'd better" = he should
"or, he SHOULD [go to prison] unless the [prosecuting lawyers in court] want me [vague threat somewhere between harassment and literally chasing them]"
"to hound" usually refers to the act of chasing someone like a hunting hound (dog), hard to distract and tireless
