As Circuit Attorney, Daniel will work to strengthen the working relationship between the Circuit Attorney’s Office and our officers through open dialogue and fostering mutual trust. Like all citizens, he wants the police officers to enforce the law with due diligence and integrity, and has faith in them to do so.
By offering them the ability to choose which cases go to trial or plea, Daniel believes that we can greatly reduce the number of criminal cases that are being dismissed or lost in the City.
