Catherine Halbrooks for DA
Catherine Halbrooks has blatantly violated the rape shield law, releasing
things in the press that weren't even allowed in open Court.  Do rape victims
want HER representing THEM???

PLATFORM:

FAIR, FIRM JUSTICE FOR ALL.  
Except for the Tiptons, of course.

Justice based on the truth. I note the "truth" doesn't deserve capitals.

JUSTICE THAT IS APPLIED EQUALLY TO ALL CITIZENS regardless of social
status.  
So long as they can afford Sherman Powell.

Tough but fair prosecution of ANYONE who breaks the law.

Dedicated to hard work and fully preparing for cases at trial.  
For an example of how
well she prepared for the DWM murder trial,
click here.

Working closely not only with law enforcement, victims and defense counsel but the
public as well.  
The only reason anybody has ever heard of Catherine Halbrooks is
because of her stupid and shameless attacks on law enforcement, victims, and
opposing counsel--the very people she claims she'll now work happily alongside.

An office open to hear the voice of ALL the people and address their needs.
  When the president of the Fraternal Order of Police asked Halbrooks how she would
work with the DPD, given her last two years of trashing them, she responded,
"I've been overwhelmed by the number of law enforcement officers who approved of
the job I did with the Daniel Wade Moore case."  
I'd like for her to name just one.
And her husband and Roger Payne don't count.

   As for her concern for victims, consider this quote from her to the Bar Association:
"If the evidence sheds the victim, the victim's husband and their friends in a negative
light that is not the concern of the defense attorney."  
Even if that evidence has
absolutely nothing to do with the case, and is protected by law.  Do you think a victim
should actually TRUST
HER with sensitive personal information???

   And as for her dedication to the truth, consider the fact she lied repeatedly about the
"
daily male visitor," the DNA test results, and the computer.  She lied about the DPD to
accuse them of misconduct.  She lied about the opposing counsel to accuse THEM of
misconduct, e.g. the "
bloody footprint."
Catherine Halbrooks has attacked the integrity and professionalism of the entire
Decatur Police Department.
She has attacked the integrity and professionalism of opposing counsel.
She has done so in a dishonest, unintelligent, and unwise manner, courtesy of the
Decatur Daily Democrat.
Catherine Halbrooks:  the only reason
on earth to vote for Bob Burrell.
