Welcome

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to announce that I am running for district attorney for the Northwestern District. I know that I am the right person for this position because I have successfully prosecuted criminals in Hampshire and Franklin Counties for the past 9 plus years. During that time, I have prosecuted thousands of criminal cases, ranging from child sexual assaults to homicides.

In addition, I am actively involved in many onsite criminal investigations helping the efficient prosecution of cases.

In order to lead the Office, the district attorney must possess the experience of being in a courtroom prosecuting criminal cases, and must understand what it is like to be in the trenches fighting for the victims of crimes.

As your district attorney, I promise you that in each and every case I will seek justice for the citizens of the Northwestern District.

Thank you for your support,

Michael Cahillane
