Our office stands with our colleagues at the Fresno County District Attorney's Office following the senseless and violent attack on one of their Senior Deputy District Attorneys.

Our thoughts are with the prosecutor, his family and his colleagues as he receives medical care and begins his recovery. We are grateful to the Fresno County Sheriff’s deputies and medical professionals who responded and are caring for him.

No one should face violence for doing the important work of seeking justice and protecting our communities. The Napa County District Attorney’s Office stands with our fellow prosecutors and the entire Fresno County District Attorney’s Office during this difficult time.

Nuestra oficina se solidariza con nuestros colegas de la Fiscalía del Condado de Fresno tras el ataque violento y sin sentido contra uno de sus fiscales adjuntos principales.

Nuestros pensamientos están con el fiscal, su familia y sus colegas mientras recibe atención médica y comienza su recuperación. Agradecemos a los agentes del Sheriff del Condado de Fresno y al personal médico que respondieron al incidente y que están brindándole atención.

Nadie debería ser víctima de violencia por realizar la importante labor de buscar justicia y proteger a nuestras comunidades. La Fiscalía del Condado de Napa se solidariza con nuestros colegas fiscales y con toda la Fiscalía del Condado de Fresno durante este difícil momento.

Our office is standing together.

One of our Senior Deputy District Attorneys was the victim of a brazen stabbing this afternoon in Courthouse Park. He was transported to Community Regional Medical Center, where he is currently receiving medical care and is being evaluated.

We are outraged and deeply saddened by this senseless act of violence. Our prosecutors come to work every day committed to pursuing justice, standing up for victims and protecting our community. They should be able to do that work without fear of violence.

Out of respect for our colleague and his family, we will not be releasing his name. We ask our community to respect their privacy during this difficult time.

We are grateful to the Fresno County Sheriff’s deputies who responded so quickly and apprehended the suspect, as well as the medical personnel caring for our colleague.

Please keep our colleague and his family in your thoughts and prayers as he receives care and begins his recovery.

- District Attorney Lisa A. Smittcamp

August 21 is National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day, a day to remember lives lost to overdoses involving illegally made fentanyl and take action to help prevent future loss. Counterfeit pills can look like real medication, but they may contain fentanyl. You can't see, taste, or smell fentanyl. Even one pill can be deadly. This year, start a conversation with the young people in your life. Talk early. Share facts. Help prevent overdose.

El 21 de agosto es el Día Nacional de Prevención y Concientización sobre el Fentanilo, un día para recordar las vidas perdidas por sobredosis relacionadas con fentanilo fabricado ilegalmente y tomar acción para ayudar a prevenir futuras muertes.
Las pastillas falsificadas pueden parecer medicamentos auténticos, pero pueden contener fentanilo. El fentanilo no se puede ver, saborear ni oler. Incluso una sola pastilla puede ser mortal.
Este año, inicia una conversación con los jóvenes en tu vida. Habla con ellos desde temprana edad. Comparte información. Ayuda a prevenir una sobredosis.

The August edition on Newsline is hot off the virtual press and ready to dive into. In this edition, we highlight Assembly Bill 46, a recently signed law that will transform the way that California courts evaluate requests for mental health diversion by giving judges greater discretion to consider public safety.

Ever wondered what it’s like to work at the Napa County District Attorney’s Office? We sat down with two of our newest deputy district attorneys to discuss their experiences as first-year prosecutors, the challenges they’ve faced, and the opportunities that have helped shape their careers. You won’t want to miss the conversation.

We also provide new case updates and share much more in this edition of Newsline. Link in first comment

La edición de agosto de Newsline acaba de salir de la prensa virtual y está lista para que la descubra. En esta edición, destacamos la Asamblea Bill 46 (AB 46), una ley recientemente promulgada que transformará la manera en que los tribunales de California evalúan las solicitudes de desvío por salud mental al otorgar a los jueces mayor discreción para considerar la seguridad pública.

¿Alguna vez se ha preguntado cómo es trabajar en la Oficina del Fiscal de Distrito del Condado de Napa? Conversamos con dos de nuestros más recientes fiscales adjuntos para conocer sus experiencias durante su primer año como fiscales, los desafíos que han enfrentado y las oportunidades que han contribuido a forjar sus carreras.
