Mission Statement

Mission Statement

The office is empowered and obligated by state law to seek justice by exercising its prosecutorial discretion in cases involving violations of Colorado’s criminal laws committed by adults and juveniles.  We are committed to advocating for victims’ rights and promoting public safety.

Our mission is to seek justice for all cases within the 18th Judicial District. The office will professionally, ethically and vigorously prosecute criminal offenses. The office has three priorities: prosecuting criminals to the fullest extent possible; protecting the rights and interests of crime victims; and preventing crime before it happens.

We are committed to advocating for victims’ rights and promoting public safety through cooperation and partnership with law enforcement and our community members.

Colorado has 22 judicial districts. The 18th Judicial District is comprised of four counties: Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln.
