What's next for the Maricopa County Attorney's Office?

Maricopa County Attorney Allister Adel ended her three-year tenure
as the county's top prosecutor in a hospital amid concerns that she
was losing her battle with alcohol abuse and after her top section
chiefs noted they didn’t think she was up to the job.  Adel's
resignation sparked a dash to qualify for the election to replace
her and a lightning round of interviews for an interim boss.
The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors has appointed Republican
Rachel Mitchell as the interim county attorney to finish out Adel's
term, which ends this fall. Candidates to run for the office in the
2022 election had just two weeks to file paperwork and gather
signatures to qualify for the August primaries in their bid to take
over one of the largest prosecutorial teams in the country. All
this begs the question: What's next for the Maricopa County
Attorney's Office? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
