About the District Attorney

“My goal while in the office of the District Attorney is to bring justice to the victims of crime in the 13^th Judicial District and the communities that are affected by those crimes.

To reach this goal, I will strive to foster positive working relationships with the law enforcement agencies around the district, including reciprocal training between my staff and officers in every county.

In addition, I will ensure that my staff is always professional and helpful when interacting with the public, defendants, and the courts, as well as guaranteeing that my attorneys are experts in identifying the value of a case and either making the appropriate plea offer or fighting vigorously at trial as a result of that examination of facts.

I hope to make what we do as prosecutors more understandable for the general public by engaging in community outreach and helping to educate people of all ages as to the law and the justice system as a whole.

It is an honor and privilege to be the District Attorney of the 13th, and a responsibility that I do not take lightly.”
