Robert Lane for Paulding District Attorney

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation. Memorial Day is a solemn reminder that the freedoms we enjoy were secured by those who never returned home. Their courage, their sacrifice, and their devotion to duty will never be forgotten.

We also hold in our hearts the families who bear the weight of that sacrifice every day. Their strength and resilience embody the true meaning of Memorial Day.

As we reflect, may we strive to live in a way that honors those who gave everything to protect our country and our communities. Their legacy endures in our commitment to justice, service, and the values they fought to defend.

We remember. We honor. We are grateful.

As election day approaches on Tuesday, May 19 (7:00 am to 7:00 pm), I hope every voter takes the time to separate facts from fiction, reality from fear, and results from promises.

I trust voters to make an informed decision that will help lead us to a better tomorrow. On May 20, 2026, we can all move forward - together.

I am humbly asking for your vote on Tuesday, May 19.

Yours in service,

One of the greatest honors of my life has been to have the privilege to lead one of the best teams in Northwest Georgia.

In honor of National Limerick Day, Newt insisted on contributing his own “legal” wisdom.

DA Robert Lane and Newt, each dressed up in a suit,
were arguing statutes to boot.
One cited a clause,
The other said “Paws—
That precedent’s clearly in dispute.

Even in an office that handles serious matters every day, moments of levity remind us to stay grounded, human, and—at least in Newt’s case—occasionally canine. A little humor helps us continue serving our community with steadiness and grace.

This past Thursday, I had the honor of attending the Law Enforcement Memorial & Candlelight Vigil honoring the fallen officers of Cobb, Paulding, and Douglas Counties.

The ceremony is a powerful reminder of the men and women who gave their lives in service to our communities, and of the families who continue to carry their legacy.

We are grateful for their sacrifice, we remember their names, and we stand with the loved ones they left behind. Some things rise above everything else — honoring those who served and protected is one of them.
