Tough On Crime

David has brought a new approach to law enforcement that is working to make us safer. If you pose a threat to Albany County residents, David Soares will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. Since taking office in 2004, David has:

  • Sentenced the top 50 violent felons sentenced to more than 1200 years in prison with more than eight life sentences
  • Shut down 35 drug houses and trained more than 500 landlords to evict dealers
  • Taken guns off the streets with Operation Speeding Bullet
  • Added more prosecutors for domestic violence and sexual assault than ever before


"It doesn't matter who you are or who you know, if you pose a threat to Albany County residents, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
