Innovation

“The Prosecutor is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all, and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice be done.” -- United States Supreme Court case of U.S. v. Berger in 1935

Justice is pursued over many paths – some traditional, others more innovative. I do not believe in change for its own sake any more than I blindly adhere to tradition. As District Attorney, I am exploring innovative approaches to public safety and integrating them with existing practice to arrive at the most effective means of achieving justice for victims and accountability for offenders.
