I spoke with CBS-17 yesterday about the work ahead.

Now the focus is on building a stronger DA’s office, adding the prosecutors we need, and keeping Wake County safe.

Thanks so much to everyone who made this possible. The work starts now.

Thanks so much to First Baptist Church for the warm welcome this morning.

For more than 213 years, this church has stood for faith, justice, and service in our community. That commitment to fairness and accountability is exactly what I’ll bring as District Attorney for Wake County.
