Oregon’s 36 district attorneys are responsible for safeguarding the rights of all Oregonians, including both victims and defendants in criminal cases. As set forth in the Oregon Constitution, district attorneys represent the public in criminal matters by filing criminal charges where warranted by the law and available evidence. The district attorney is equally responsible for seeking justice for crime victims while also protecting a defendant’s right to due process and a fair trial.
