Professional Experience


Leadership Over Personal Agendas

Gerald Richard is a law enforcement leader — not a career politician. He will bring his 22-years of legal experience and his track record as a consensus builder to restore the professionalism of the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, not only within the law enforcement community, but also among the citizen’s the office is mandated to protect.

Gerald Richard will not use the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office for political purposes or to further a personal agenda. He will emphasize prosecuting the crimes plaguing our communities by actively targeting gang related criminal activity; violent crimes; property crimes; juvenile criminal activity and the criminal activities associated with illegal immigration.

Gerald Richard will not politicize or publicize criminal justice issues for posturing purposes, but instead will be a leader who is truly committed to public safety, quality of life and the well being of the nearly 1,000 employees who are doing the day-to-day work of the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.

As your next Maricopa County Attorney, Gerald Richard will not be fiscally irresponsible with public funds and in fact will return fiscal accountability and responsibility to that office by evaluating the current administration’s outreach programs by measuring effectiveness, programs without proven performance measures will be evaluated and cost savings will be directed toward training career prosecutors.
