Marc LaHood is challenging incumbent Joe Gonzales in the Nov. 8 election.
Gonzales and LaHood also have different philosophies on the state’s criminal abortion statutes.
Q: Would you prosecute individuals that violate a law that you don’t agree with? Should everyone be held to laws put in place by legislators?“I took an oath to uphold the constitution. Additionally, the Texas Penal Code indicates that the primary duty of District Attorneys is not to seek convictions, but inst to see that justice is done. It is a policy that my office reviews every case filed by law enforcement.
Q: Will prosecution of law enforcement be prioritized when the crimes that they commit are so egregious?“Our justice system should treat everyone equally, and nobody should be above the law. In my office, we have prosecuted members of law enforcement when they commit crimes. We are currently prosecuting several cases alleging excessive use of force by a peace officer.
“Any law will be evaluated as every case and law will be: based on the charge, evidence, and history. If the legislature repeals or modify the law, then I will enforce their repeal or modification. It’s a terrifying trend to empower and encourage our law enforcement officers to pick and choose what laws they enforce based on their personal beliefs.”
