Maricopa County Attorney on high-profile cases
Dec. 17
The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office is set to address several major law enforcement and public safety issues. Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss these topics.
In this wide-ranging discussion on current cases and community concerns, Mitchell discussed recent high-profile cases, new indictments and charges filed in Maricopa County as well as law enforcement sweeps along the 27th Avenue Corridor in Phoenix, known as “The Blade.” The operation led to dozens of arrests as detectives worked to crack down on human trafficking. However, survivor advocates have criticized the approach.
Mitchell also discussed a recent road rage incident, with input on how self-defense claims are handled in road rage situations, and what prosecutors consider when reviewing these cases.
