Before entering public office, Mr. Krasner spent 30 years as a criminal defense attorney in Philadelphia. He began his career as a public defender and went on to build a distinguished practice focused on criminal defense and civil rights litigation. He frequently represented protesters on a pro bono basis and became widely known for defending members of movements such as Black Lives Matter and Occupy Philadelphia. Mr. Krasner campaigned for DA on a progressive, reform-oriented platform. Since taking office, he has implemented significant criminal justice reforms within the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office, including establishing an active Conviction Integrity Unit.
