With same resources as previous DA, Gallegos has done a better job

Letters to the Editor | from the Eureka Reporter | by Richard Scheinman | Jun 3, 2006

Dear Editor,

Paul Gallegos has done a fine job as district attorney, in spite of the unprecedented attack upon him by the reigning powers of the past in the form of a recall attempt, which the voters here soundly beat.

He deserves our support and our vote, so he and we can continue forward.With almost the same staff of attorneys as the previous DA, and despite budget cuts, he has led them to a better record of prosecutions of the usual crimes, and has put the corporate powers in the form of Maxxam on notice that they are not outside the reach of the law — something that his predecessor was loath to do. He deserves our support and our vote, so he and we can continue forward.

Dr. Richard Scheinman
