What is the number one crime in Marin County?

The number one crime in Marin County is driving under the influence of alcohol, or DUI. We had over 1,200 misdemeanor DUIs in 2018 and 2017. During those years the county’s number 10 crime was domestic violence; between those two are things like public intoxication, theft, possession of drug paraphernalia and credit card fraud among other crimes. Around 80 percent of the county’s crimes are misdemeanors, not felonies, but presently we are prosecuting five murder cases. So, we’re rather lucky; ours is a relatively safe district. However, there’s a reason why: there’s good law enforcement out there doing their job, and we’re doing a good job of prosecuting cases in order to cut down on recidivism. The number one crime in Marin County is driving under the influence of alcohol, or DUI.

What is the district attorney's motto?

Basically, it is to get out into the community and let people know we are here to help; our motto is “Connecting the Community to the Courthouse.” We now have a video explaining what the district attorney’s office does that I’m anxious to share with seniors’ groups, to service clubs and wherever people gather. To me, community engagement is a huge part of our job that we never really embraced before. We have victim witness advocates that help victims and a specialist who helps get restitution for the losses they have suffered. We have a consumers’ unit that looks at instances where people feel they’ve been ripped off. And we have a group of volunteers who mediate cases where there is conflict. Another one of my priorities is making sure the immigrant community knows we’re here to help them; we have people available who speak Spanish and other languages. And this month, I’m involved with programs combating human trafficking and building connections that result in safe and inclusive communities for young and old.
