Protect Victims of Violent Crime

Victims deserve to know the justice system is on their side.

  • Sexual assault prosecutions
  • Domestic violence cases
  • Child abuse
  • Human trafficking
  • Strong victim advocacy services
  • Trauma-informed prosecution

Justice begins by making victims feel heard, protected, and respected.

Safer Neighborhoods

Every family deserves to feel safe.

  • Reducing gun violence
  • Holding repeat violent offenders accountable
  • Working closely with local police
  • Community partnerships that prevent crime before it happens

Public safety and community trust must work together.

Smart Justice

Not every case should be treated the same.

Linda believes violent offenders should face serious consequences, while lower-level, non-violent offenders should have opportunities to become productive members of society through accountability and rehabilitation when appropriate.

Smart justice reduces repeat crime while protecting public safety.

Protect Seniors & Vulnerable Residents

Older adults deserve protection from fraud, abuse, and financial exploitation.

  • Elder abuse
  • Financial scams
  • Identity theft
  • Caregiver exploitation

Protecting our most vulnerable citizens is a fundamental responsibility of the District Attorney's Office.

5

Integrity, Transparency & Accountability

The public deserves confidence in its justice system.

  • Fair and impartial prosecutions
  • Ethical leadership
  • Transparency
  • Equal justice under the law
  • Building trust through accountability

Justice must be fair for every victim, every witness, and every community.

Leadership. Experience. Integrity.
