Work History

District Attorney of Mendocino County

2007-2011

Upon assuming office, the attorneys had completed a strike and we

were short-handed. I was able to rebuild and strengthen the office during

difficult budget years. I kept campaign promises to improve victim's rights

and community oriented prosecution, establishing truancy, juvenile, elder

abuse and environmental programs. Violent offenders were aggressively

prosecuted and sentenced to state prison protecting the public.
