“The people of Tarrant County deserve a District Attorney who has the background, qualifications, and experience to faithfully execute the duties and responsibilities of the office. We need a leader who that the professional prosecutor in the office will follow. We need a leader who serving as the chief law enforcement officer in the county can inspire those who are sworn to serve and protect are held to the highest standards and backed and supported when they do their best.
