Legal Experience

Building the right foundation from day one. Every case will begin with a standardized intake process that requires prosecutors to identify, log, and assess available evidence. This structure ensures the office moves forward with a clear-eyed view of what exists — not assumptions about what might be found later.

Discovery obligations met on time, every time. Delayed or incomplete discovery undermines the integrity of the entire judicial process. My office will establish clear internal timelines and accountability measures to ensure evidence requests from defense counsel are responded to promptly and fully — respecting constitutional obligations and reducing unnecessary case delays.

Transparency that rebuilds trust in the process. Victims deserve to know where their case stands. Defense counsel deserves to receive updates that allow them to properly advise their clients. My office will implement regular, structured communication protocols so that no party is left in the dark — honoring victims' rights and taxpayer dollars.

Ethics & Conduct

The executive order on the White House webpage points towards targeting criminals and violent offenders, but Santorini said none of the men she's now representing pro-bono have criminal records.

Modi said the courts know the men have no criminal records based on the process they went through to get their court appearances.
