LOS ANGELES TIMES

"Michael Jesic is another prosecutor who has mastered the courtroom and is ready to become a judge."

Daily Breeze

"Jesic, a criminal gang prosecutor who has put away some of the county's most violent offenders, has assembled an impressive list of supporters and has earned high marks for his community work to reduce gang violence. The 12-year veteran of the D.A.'s Office has our endorsement in the June 3 election."

Metropolitan News-Enterprise

"we endorse Jesic because he stands out as a lawyer who ought to be a judge. He has a reputation for being an effective prosecutor but one who is driven by justice not a blind quest for victory; he is known for his forthrightness, integrity, and sense of fairness."
