District Attorney Sam D'Aquilla  encourages all students and adults to think before they drink.  One lapse in judgment can have lifelong consequences.  You are in control of your actions and can be held accountable for these actions.   The wrecked vehicles at the entrance of each area high school serves as a reminder that alcohol and driving do not go together.  Please be safe and enjoy the remainder of this school year and the summer. Congratulations to the Seniors of 2009!

DA SPONSORS KID ID PROGRAM

District Attorney Sam D'Aquilla sponsored a Kid Id Program at Clinton Elementary, Jackson Elementary, Slaughter Elementary and Silliman Institute.  Each Pre-K and Kindergarten student at these schools had their photograph and fingerprints taken in order to make a laminated identification card for the parent.  The program is designed in case a child becomes lost or missing, the parent would have all necessary information on the identification card to assist law enforcement to locate the child.  In times of crisis, trying to recall information about a child is difficult and adds to the stress of the situation.
Mr. D'Aquilla and his staff would like to thank each of the schools for their concern and participation in this program.

 

 

DISTRICT ATTORNEY OFFICE PARTICIPATES
IN
TAKE BACK THE NIGHT

Take Back the Night is an international tradition with marches and rallies occurring around the world since 1976. That year, in Belgium, women attending the International Tribunal on Crimes Against Women marched together in solidarity, holding candles to protest the ways in which violence permeates the lives of women worldwide.  In 1978, the anti-rape movement joined together thousands of women in San Francisco to "Take Back The Night" from violence against women.  Since then, similar events featuring a speak out of survivors of abuse and a march to raise awareness have taken place in cities across the country.  By marching in unity on this night, we extract rape, battery, incest and sexual harassment from the home and workplace to the street, making this "private" issue a public one.
