The Long Beach Police Officers Association has endorsed city prosecutor candidate Doug Haubert.
"The Long Beach Police Officers Association endorses Prosecutor Doug Haubert for Long Beach City Prosecutor because he is tough on crime, experienced, and the most qualified candidate for the position," said Steve James, President of the Long Beach POA.
Haubert, a former Long Beach deputy city attorney who now works for a law firm for which he handles prosecutions and legal issues for several area cities, has also been endorsed by Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca and the Association of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs. His opponent is Timothy O'Reilly, an assistant city prosecutor.
The prosecutor position is open because City Prosecutor Thomas Reeves is running for city attorney.
