I rarely get into politics on this Blog, but I have to make an exception for my colleague Attorney Robert Jubinville who is running for reelection for Governor’s Council in District 2 which covers Milton, Sharon and a good part of Metro South. The Governor’s Council is a little known political body, but it has a very important job — confirmation of all judicial nominations.
Bob Jubinville is one of the preeminent criminal defense lawyers in the state, with over 30 years of experience in the courtroom. A former State Police trooper, he is also the father of two adult daughters — one is a lawyer, the other a probation officer. He lives and works in his home office in East Milton Square on Adams Street next to the post office.
With all that real life experience, Bob has a keen eye as to which candidate would make a good judge.
Perhaps most impressive is Bob’s long standing advocacy on behalf of those suffering from addiction, particularly the heroin crisis ripping our communities apart. Bob has already ensured that our future judges have a working knowledge of addiction science and treatment and will allow people suffering from addiction to have access to treatment as opposed to incarceration.
For more info on Bob, here is a Boston.com article.
If your ballot shows Robert Jubinville for Governor’s Council, please consider voting for him.
