Politics in the prosecutor’s office? - Follow up
On Aug. 19, I asked whether politics was a factor in hiring and keeping assistant prosecutors in the Butler County Prosecutor’s office. Read the story and comments here.
My reason for asking: A statement by Republican candidate for juvenile judge Barbara Schneider Carter that she was expected to change her party affiliation when she worked for former Prosecutor John Holcomb, a Democrat.
“It was expected when I joined the prosecutor’s office under Holcomb that we register as Democrats,” she said.
Here are the names and party affiliations of all the current assistant prosecutors working for Prosecutor Robin Piper, a Republican:
- Lina Alkamhawi - R
- Michael Baker - SAME NAME
- Brad Burress - R
- Tom Busam - NR
- LaRhonda Carson - NR
- Rebecca Cepluch - R
- Brenda Cox - D

- Jeffrey Schlessman - R
- Kim Schnieder - SAME NAME

Key:

Someone needs to explain the importance of voting to a good number of the employees in the prosecutors office, I count ten that are not even registered to vote.
