Andrew Warren is the elected State Attorney for Florida’s 13th Judicial Circuit (Hillsborough County). Since his election in 2017 and re-election in 2020, State Attorney Warren has been called “the face of criminal justice reform in Tampa” and is widely regarded as a smart, progressive county prosecutor. A rising star in Florida, Warren was recently selected to lead the Democratic Party’s Safety & Justice Task Force, promoting best practices for criminal justice reform on a statewide basis.
In this episode, Thad Bereday and State Attorney Warren discuss his office’s approach to community safety, recidivism, and the criminalization of poverty, focusing on the types of cases handled in Hillsborough County. State Attorney Warren describes the impact of court-imposed fines and fees, arrests for driver’s license suspensions and how diversion programs and other reforms can improve the system. He also describes the mindset of prosecutors, judges, and other stakeholders, noting why established policies may create obstacles to reducing cycles of crime and promoting rehabilitation for individuals.
