💜 Sometimes, the best way to prevent domestic violence from escalating is to address the warning signs early.

Domestic violence cases can be complicated, and sometimes there are other issues at play, including substance abuse or mental health challenges.

Chief Deputy District Attorney Ronald Evans of our Domestic Violence Unit knows that justice isn't always about putting someone behind bars. Sometimes, it's about holding offenders accountable while also getting people the help they need before the violence becomes even more serious.

Addressing these issues early is an opportunity to make a lasting difference for victims, families and the Clark County community. 💜

🎓⚖️ That's a wrap on our inaugural Citizens Academy! ⚖️🎓

After seven weeks of learning, asking questions, and getting a behind-the-scenes look at the Clark County District Attorney's Office, our very first class has officially graduated!

Chief DDA Jon Jones kicked things off by explaining our office's role in Nevada's legislative process and how the laws passed during legislative sessions shape the way we prosecute crimes and protect our community.

Next, participants had the opportunity to ask their remaining questions during a panel with District Attorney Steve Wolfson and Assistant District Attorneys Alex Chen and Pam Weckerly.

We were also honored to welcome Nevada Gaming Commission Chairwoman Jennifer Togliatti, a former judge and former prosecutor with our office, as our special guest speaker.

Finally, we celebrated our participants by presenting them with their graduation certificates and officially recognizing them as the first graduating class of the Clark County District Attorney's Office Citizens Academy!

To our inaugural class: THANK YOU! Your curiosity, thoughtful questions, and enthusiasm made these past seven weeks an incredible experience. We couldn't have asked for a better group to help launch this program.

👀 Stay tuned for when we open applications for our 2nd Citizens Academy class👀

💜 Deputy District Attorney James Puccinelli has spent the past few years working in our Domestic Violence Unit, and he says he's seeing cases involving more frequent and more severe violence.

He also explains how abusers may use children or even family pets as a way to threaten, intimidate or control their victims. And domestic violence isn't limited to physical assaults. Certain behaviors, including aggravated stalking, can also fall under domestic violence laws.

For James, one of the most rewarding parts of his job is having the opportunity to address these issues and make a difference in the Clark County community.

By helping people recognize the different forms domestic violence can take, we hope more victims and families feel empowered to seek help.💜

💜 Domestic violence doesn't just affect the people directly involved. It can leave a lasting impact on the children who witness it, too.

Children learn a lot about relationships from what they see at home. When they grow up around domestic violence, they may begin to believe that yelling, threats, controlling behavior or physical abuse are normal parts of a relationship.

As part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Deputy District Attorney John Sandoval of our Domestic Violence Unit shares why breaking the cycle of abuse is so important, especially when children are involved.

At the Clark County District Attorney's Office, attorneys like DDA John Sandoval play a role in breaking that cycle by holding offenders accountable and helping victims and their families access the support and resources they need.

The behaviors children witness growing up can shape how they understand relationships later in life. But the cycle doesn't have to continue. With support, education and healthy examples, children can learn that love should never come with fear or violence. 💜

💜 “Why didn’t the victim just leave?” It’s a question we hear far too often when talking about domestic violence.

But Deputy District Attorney Kristen Goodhart of our Domestic Violence Unit encourages people to ask a different question: “Why didn’t the victim feel safe enough to leave?”

Fear, threats, financial dependence and concern for loved ones can make leaving an abusive relationship incredibly difficult, and sometimes dangerous.

For Kristen, one of the most rewarding parts of her work is helping victims through difficult moments and making sure they feel heard. They're not just another piece of evidence in a case. It's an approach that matters throughout the DA's Office as we work to support victims, hold offenders accountable and help make Clark County a safer place. 💜
