The arrival of summer heat didn’t slow things down at The People’s Office as June was a busy month of comings and goings, milestones, celebrations and partnership at the Pima County Attorney’s Office.
As the month began, we marked a meaningful milestone of hitting the $1 million mark for restitution made to victims of fraud. Continuing the excellent work of former Fraud Unit lead Nick Spare, the unit’s new Prosecuting Attorney Julia Kaiserman saw that benchmark achieved as the unit she heads marked its one-year anniversary. The People’s Office is excited to watch that figure grow as Julia, one of three original attorneys when the Coalition Against Retail Fraud (CART) was formed, continues to work diligently on behalf of victims and the community in pursuit of fraud prevention and justice.
Speaking of personnel changes – a common occurrence in an office employing some 350 talented and ambitious public servants – we have had a handful of notable ones this month.
As previously noted, Sofia Blue has the enviable assignment of succeeding outgoing Community Outreach Coordinator Patrick Robles as she joins the Senior Leadership Team. Following Patrick may be a tough act, but it is one full of wonderful opportunities to work in the diverse and dynamic communities that make up Pima County to promote public safety and justice while making new friends and building productive relationships.
