Episode 137: State Attorney Bill Gladson

In this episode, FSA speaks with State Attorney Bill Gladson, a former law enforcement officer and career prosecutor. As state attorney, Bill leads a team of over 240 employees who serve the citizens of Citrus, Hernando, Lake, Marion, and Sumter counties, an area encompassing more than 1.4 million people. We discuss emerging technology and how it is impacting evidence and search warrants. Bill also talks about how prosecutors in his judicial circuit communicate with sheriffs and their deputies to constantly improve their work. This continuous communication assists his office with addressing dangerous criminals to include the challenges of Florida's multifaceted drug epidemic and how state attorneys are working to keep communities safe.
