Deschutes County's new District Attorney Patrick Flaherty is excited about his new Chief Deputy D.A. Her name is Traci Anderson and she comes from the Portland area. “She has outstanding experience from Multnomah County where she was a prosecutor for 12 years. She brings tremendous skill to our County and I’m looking forward to working with her.”  Flaherty says Anderson's experience will help the County quickly move through its backlog of cases.
