Iranian of the Day

I would like your help and support. Vote for me on June 8th, 2010, elections. Every crime matters. I know there is no such thing as a victim-less crime. No matter the severity of the offense every crime has an impact on individuals and our community. That is why I am running for District Attorney. I know, that if you want to stop major crimes you cannot ignore so called minor crimes. Early in my career I worked in the Ventura County D.A.’s office under Michael Bradbury, who is one of the pioneers of the “broken windows” theory of law enforcement. It is a proven fact that when you vigorously prosecute the minor offences, it greatly reduces the more serious crimes in the future. You simply must be tough on all levels. Contra Costa County’s legal system needs to move into the 21st century. Not a single woman or minority serves in a senior position, the office has had nearly 100% turnover since 2003, while resources are wasted on bloated salaries and ill-advised cases where justice is not being served >>>
