On Tuesday August 21st 2012, we have invited the candidates for state attorney to speak, addressing issues regarding the election, immigration, white collar crime and much more.  

TorracoJohn  (DEM)

“The State Attorney’s Office for the Twelfth judicial circuit, which includes all of DeSoto, Manatee and Sarasota counties, has one of the lowest trial conviction rates in Florida. The conviction rate has been steadily dropping for the last seven years. We can do better.” http://vote4torraco.com/

“I am running for one simple reason: I am deeply passionate and committed to serving you and ensuring you and your families the safety and the quality of life that we all want and expect.  And I will expect everyone in the office to share my commitment and passion for justice.” http://edbrodsky.net/

LombardoPeter  (REP)

“Our next state Attorney needs to be a tough crime fighter who will seek justice. As your next State Attorney, I will not allow the bureaucracy to let criminals walk the streets and keep committing crimes. I will prosecute gang members under RICO laws before they can start shootouts that kill innocent children and tourists… I will work with the Sheriff and demand speedy trials for illegal aliens that are caught committing crimes” http://peterlombardoforstateattorney.com/
