Susan Happ For District Attorney

    
         
       
         
   
 

Experienced. Respected. Lifelong community commitment.

Susan Happ has spent over a decade working directly with prosecutors, offenders, victims and judges in numerous counties.

In addition, her life experiences give her a different perspective that cannot be taught in law school or through internships.

   
 

 

Said Susan:

“My life experiences have taught me much. They give me a unique ability to look at each case from a different perspective. My family was victimized by a horrible and senseless crime, and as a victim I wanted justice, and I wanted the people responsible punished. As a mother, I want to protect our children. As a lifelong member of this community, I am determined to keep our community safe. As a business owner and taxpayer, I want to see efficiency and results. These are all part of my life experiences, and will shape the way I approach crime in our community and will make me a zealous, effective prosecutor.”
