Questions & Answers

1. How would you implement your top priority?

I will use my listening and evaluating abilities, which I have honed in 17 years of dealing with judges, juries and witnesses. Having prosecuted Ohio?s most serious crimes, jail must be one answer to crime. I balance this tough stance, as the legal advisor to Hamilton County?s Criminal Diversion program, which treats first time, non-violent offenders, with a focus on rehabilitation. I will advocate for this program in Cincinnati, where it is currently non-existent.
