When I ran for District Attorney in 2002, I promised justice for all and I have delivered.  By prosecuting violent crime and white collar crime, standing up to special interests and cracking down on those who prey upon the innocent, I have been able to keep my promise to the people of Humboldt County.  Our community is safer now under my leadership.

My office has established effective units for Criminal Investigations, Environmental Crimes and Consumer Protection Unit, Sex Crimes Workers’ Compensation Fraud, Domestic Violence and Bad Checks. We are cracking down on the terrible scourge of meth, while stopping the abuses of Proposition 215 and at the same time making sure that the sick have safe access to medical marijuana.

I am pleased to be raising my family in Humboldt County and want to continue the progress we have made in making this a safe community in which to live, work and raise children. Please join me in standing up for all of Humboldt County.

I'm asking for your vote on November 2nd.
