Morro Bay Police Officers Association
Supports Dan Dow for DA
San Luis Obispo, CA – The Morro Bay Police Officers Association is the sixth major public safety organization to recently endorse District Attorney Dan Dow’s re-election campaign. Earlier this past month Dow received the support of the Paso Robles POA, Arroyo Grande POA, the Atascadero POA, the San Luis Obispo Deputy District Attorneys, and the San Luis Obispo POA.
“Dan has earned our trust and confidence by following through on his promises and working collaboratively with our officers and police departments across the county. He is working hard to keep our communities safe,” said Greg Gruich, President of the Morro Bay Police Officers Association.
During Dow’s tenure as DA, Dow and his team of Deputy District Attorneys have successfully achieved justice for thousands of crime victims and their families. San Luis Obispo County continues to maintain its status as one of the safest counties in California. Dow maintains that working collaboratively with the County’s police agencies is an important ingredient in his office’s success.
Dow started San Luis Obispo County’s Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force that has led to multiple cases investigated, charged, and jury trial convictions with life sentences for predators trafficking minors for commercial sexual exploitation. Dow has worked proactively with police agencies around the county on this important task force.
“I’m incredibly grateful for the strong showing of support from so many public safety associations. I thank them for their partnership and I look forward to continuing to work together with them to improve the safety and strength of San Luis Obispo County,” said Dow.
Dow was originally elected District Attorney in 2014. He is a proven prosecutor with a distinguished career that focused on prosecuting domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse crimes, including homicide where he seeks to bring justice for victims of particularly devastating crimes. Dow is also Army veteran and a bronze star recipient who served in Iraq, Korea and Kosovo.
Dan and his wife Wendy, a local small business owner and reading instructor, have two school aged children. To learn more about Dan Dow and his campaign, visit: DanDow.com.
