Justice and mercy must be balanced in every sentence. Justice demands strict accountability weighed against mitigating evidence. I will protect the public by ordering significant sentences for violent criminals, child predators, and those who violate public trust. For habitual offenders, mandatory prison time ensures perpetrators cannot harm the community again. Justice often requires intervention designed to make someone a productive member of society.
The rights of victims to be heard must be protected, and their wellbeing considered, to ensure they receive justice without being re-traumatized by the legal process. Sentences must also be consistent across all defendants, regardless of race or gender, to protect each individual’s constitutional right to equal protection under the law.
Justice requires recognizing that many offenders struggle with addiction or mental illness. For nonviolent offenders, I strongly champion specialized intervention courts.
I take great pride in my dedication to child advocacy and protecting vulnerable populations. Throughout my career, I have focused on prosecuting child abuse, exploitation, and violent crime. I helped found the Healing Hearts Child Advocacy Center, I have brought my professional skills by serving on the boards of Family Crisis Services and the Diocese of Jackson, as well as the National Review Board for the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.
In court, I have managed thousands of cases and over 100 jury trials, securing lengthy sentences for murderers and child predators while holding corrupt officials accountable.
I believe true justice must be victim-focused, helping survivors heal. However, it also requires balanced solutions. While long prison terms are necessary for dangerous offenders, I champion intervention courts that give nonviolent offenders the tools to become sober, productive citizens. When a defendant graduates intervention court it is a win for the system as a whole.
I learned lessons in leadership as a US Marine, deploying with the 11th MEU. Coming from a three-generation Marine family, my service instilled a lifelong duty to a purpose greater than myself. I earned my B.A. in Political Science and my J.D. from the Ole Miss. I became an Assistant District Attorney in 2007.
Over nearly 2 decades, I have handled thousands of indictments and hundreds of jury trials, prosecuting capital murder, child exploitation, and violations of public trust. Guided by servant leadership, I balance the rights of the accused with the healing victims deserve. I champion intervention courts to offer nonviolent offenders structured rehabilitation alongside strict accountability.
My commitment extends beyond the courtroom. I helped found the Healing Hearts Child Advocacy Center, am a board member of Family Crisis CAC, and served on the National Review Board for the Catholic Church. I am a proud father and grandfather dedicated to leaving the world better than I found it.
