Tackling Crime from Every Direction

Terry Wiley has spent 30 years fighting crime.

He knows to keep our communities safe – we need to tackle crime from every direction. Starting with:

  • Focusing on the 2,000 Repeat Offenders Who Commit the Majority of Crimes in Alameda County
  • Dramatically Increasing the Number of Referrals to Drug Treatment & Mental Health Care Programs
  • Expanding Job Training and Union Internship Programs in the Community
  • Ridding Alameda County of “Ghost Guns”
  • Focusing on Protecting the Vulnerable Starting with Combatting Anti-Asian Violence but Continuing with a Focus on Domestic Violence, Crimes Against Children and all Hate Crimes
  • Holding Police Officers to a Higher Standard of Behavior. Terry Prosecuted the Largest Case of Police Corruption in Alameda County, The Oakland Rider’s Case.
  • Hiring DAs Who Understand the Communities They Serve.
  • Working to Clear Wrongful Convictions
  • Training and Oversight of Police to Root out Bias
  • Increasing Transparency of the DA’s Office, with Clear Metrics Shared with the Public
  • Holding Corporations Accountable for Polluting Communities, Particularly Focusing on Low- Income & Communities of Color Affected by Toxic Chemicals
  • Strengthening Partnerships with Victim Advocates by Opening up the Dialogue Between Organizations Doing Work on the Ground with DAs

Terry has taken on the toughest prosecutions and he knows that we can make progress on safety – quickly – by focusing on repeat and violent offenders.

 
But he won’t stop there. He will make sure we focus on drug treatment, mental health, job training and excellent schools to keep kids out of the criminal justice system.
 
He believes the way we bring peace back to our streets is to make sure we have one system of justice for everyone. Not one for people of color and another for white people. Not one for the rich and one for the poor. One system — fair to everyone and protecting everyone.
 
He knows justice starts by making sure our police and prosecutors serve every single person in this community the same way. That’s why when the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office needed a prosecutor to take on the infamous police misconduct case known as the “Riders” case — he stepped forward to hold law enforcement accountable.
 
As head of the Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the DA’s office — his mission is to make sure the DA’s office looks like the communities it serves.
