The Hood County District Attorney represents the State of Texas and victims of crimes in all felony criminal cases that occur within Hood County. Local police departments and the Sheriff's Office conduct the initial investigation on reported crimes and then turns over the evidence to the District Attorney's Office to prosecute. Once a case has been accepted by our office the case will be disposed of by a plea of guilty, trial, or dismissal.
The primary duty of the prosecutor is not to convict, but to see that justice is done. Prosecutors also assist police agencies on the legal aspects or criminal investigations and present evidence to the county grand juries in felony cases. The District Attorney's Office will continue to handle the case if it is appealed to a higher court.
