Beeson announces judicial candidacy

RBC I Martin Beeson announced his candidacy for re-election Jan. 24. Citing the accomplishments of the office during his tenure, Beeson stated that he has “established a record worthy of the trust the citizens of this district have reposed in (him) as district attorney.”
Among the accomplishments touted during Beeson’s tenure are attracting and hiring highly qualified, professional prosecutors; aggressively prosecuting the worst of the criminal element in our communities; winning convictions that put these hardened criminals behind bars for hundreds of years; and transitioning the office into 21st century prosecution with a state-of-the-art electronic file management system.
Beeson said he remains committed to the mission of the office, which is “to seek justice for the victims of crime, to pursue justice for the communities through the fair and ethical prosecution of those who commit crimes, and to earn and maintain the trust and respect of the people he is honored and privileged to serve.” He also remains committed to fiscal responsibility as he recognizes the special faith and trust reposed in him by the taxpayers who fund his office. To this end, he has operated under budget each and every year he has been in office.
Beeson has a broad array of professional experience and education. Upon completion of his service in the United States Marine Corps, he was honorably discharged in 1980. He thereafter earned his law degree from Baylor University in 1982. He is a former partner and small business owner of a law firm of 10 attorneys. He lives in beautiful Rifle, Colo., with his wife and three boys.
