Arnie Klein : Because Experience Matters

Arnie Klein's website is votearnieklein.org. His slogan: Because Experience Matters.

When I asked Arnie what sets him apart from the other 3 candidates, he said , "My 20 years of experience representing the accused allows me insight into making sure both the accused and the victims rights are preserved. The other 3 running cannot say that."

The following information is highlights from his bio and to read about his career, check out his website.

Realized early all in life that his calling was to make a difference for in his community and to level the playing field for people in all communities. In LA County, he was a sexual assault  prosecutor and never lost a sexual assault case. His experience taught him that prosecution without education would not remedy the impact of these crimes, which not only affect the victim, but the community as well.  Started outreach programs. He then went into private practice as a criminal defense attorney. He transitioned back to serving the public as a prosecutor which is what he finds to be most gratifying and rewarding.

Arnie has won convictions in high-profile gang murder cases, prosecuted career criminals, homicides, and major narcotic operations. Eradicating meth-cooking operations is one of his most satisfying accomplishments. 

He has served as Deputy District Attorney for six years under the current administration. In local court circles, he is known for winning jury trials and been called a "master in the courtroom."

Arnie's opinion is that the Humboldt County District Attorney's office,  as it is currently run, is not meeting the needs of the citizens  and that many civil, environmental, and community issues are in need of redress.
