"As a prosecutor, I had the opportunity to work with Chris Easthope on many occasions. He always approached his cases in a professional manner and put his client's best interests and the rule of law first. Chris has worked as both a prosecutor and a defense attorney, and he has worked on both civil and criminal matters. His broad base of experience makes him the most qualified to be the next District Court Judge, and I am honored to support his candidacy."
