Duo duel over duty
as district attorney
■ Dan Koenig criticizes Doug
Harderoad’s conviction rate
while Harderoad points to it
along with his programs
By Andrew Adams
Oregon Daily Emerald
A vocal challenger and an in
cumbent running for his fourth
term are the two candidates run
ning in the May 16 election for
Lane County district attorney.
Dan Koenig, a trial lawyer with
more that 27 years experience in
the court
room, is the
challenger. He
said he decid
ed to run be
cause the rep
utation of
justice in Lane
County has
been tainted
by mistakes.
District At
torney Doug Harcleroad said his
opponent’s criticism is without
merit. He said his work in the
community and a 95 percent con
viction rate are two reasons he
should be re-elected.
Koenig, however, does not hold
the conviction rate in the same re
gard. He said the statistic includes
multiple-charge cases in which
only one offense resulted in a con
viction as well as guilty pleas.
Harcleroad “uses this 95 per
cent conviction rate that means
nothing,” Koenig said, “Ninety
percent probably plead guilty.”
LANE CO.
ELECTIONS
Koenig also draws attention to
the taping of a conversation be
tween a defendant and a priest in
1995 that resulted in widespread
public outcry.
Harcleroad said the incident oc
curred five years ago and is not rel
evant to the election.
If elected as district attorney,
Koenig said he would restructure
the office to specialize lawyers for
different crimes but “spread the
load” by allowing them to also
prosecute different offenses. He
also said he would play less of an
administrative role spending
more time in the courtroom.
Harcleroad said Lane County
has benefited from his 15 years of
serving as district attorney, and he
wants to continue to provide a
high rate of conviction.
“Our job is not to let guilty peo
ple go free, and we do that,” he
said.
Harcleroad is also proud of the
community programs he initiated
as district attorney, including a
treatment center for children who
have been physically or sexually
abused and the Victim and Sur
vivor Services.
But Harcleroad said despite the
success of these two programs, he
would like to return to office so he
can continue his work in trying to
get domestic violence cases
moved faster through the system
so victims can better cope with the
crimes.
“We need to get those cases
solved quickly so the healing
process can begin sooner,” he said.
