EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Last year, the Bureau of Investigations unit of the District Attorney’s Office took a hard hit after losing two veteran District Attorney Investigators in addition to our Chief DA Investigator - all within the space of two months. We have been very fortunate to find an exceptional candidate to fill one of the two vacant DA Investigator positions.
Scott Poma is a 25-year veteran of the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office. He is very experienced in investigations, having been a detective for that agency for over five years. Mr. Poma has also earned the Basic, Intermediary, Advanced, and Supervisory POST Certificates. The Human Resources Director supports our request for this Advanced Step.
