Welcome to the website of the Crawford County Office of District Attorney. I hope that the information provided is interesting and useful to you.
The Crawford County Office of District Attorney has the authority to investigate and prosecute crimes that occur in our county. In each case that we prosecute, my office represents the citizens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
It is my goal to protect the rights of crime victims and their families. We do this by vigorously prosecuting, in a fair and ethical manner, those who break our laws. My office cannot be successful without the cooperation of victims and witnesses. Please join me and our dedicated state and local police officers in our fight to keep Crawford County a safe place to live and work.
