Website presented by the Committee to Elect Joe Barki First Judicial Circuit Judge
With 23 years serving Ohio, Brooke and Hancock counties as a prosecuting attorney, Joe Barki has spent his entire career fighting to protect the citizens of the northern panhandle.
Confronting the challenges facing our communities, such as the influx of deadly drugs, the abuse of children and the increase of violent crime, has given Joe the insight to form a judicial philosophy that will best serve the citizens of Ohio, Brooke, and Hancock counties with a fair but tough on crime application of the law.
Joe is running for First Judicial Circuit Court Judge because after 40 years it is time for a new approach in the first judicial circuit. Joe’s judicial philosophy reflects our current, common sense, community standards, and is the polar opposite of the philosophies being pushed in big cities across this country. It is a philosophy that will provide a fair, consistent application of West Virginia law, based upon experience and working knowledge of the criminal justice system that will insure not only an individual’s rights are protected, but also that the punishment fits the crime!
Over the past 23 years working as a prosecutor throughout the northern panhandle I have seen firsthand the devastating effects drugs such a heroin, methamphetamines and fentanyl have had on our communities. These drugs continue to pour into the country through our open border with Mexico, readily make their way into Ohio, Brooke and Hancock Counties. Not only are these drugs regularly killing people, but they have also led to a huge increase in property and violent crime, and most disturbingly, they have led to an increase in the abuse and neglect of children. This flood of crime and repeat offenders is overwhelming the criminal justice system.
My philosophy as circuit court judge will be to focus on the protection of our counties by upholding the constitution, to protect all citizens rights and to be tough on convicted drug and violent offenders for the protection of our families and homes. I will not be beholden to some new national liberal ideology that forgets about victims and our community standards. If you trust me with your vote for Judge you can rely on the fact that I will:
Joe will not support the progressive criminal justice philosophies championed in DC, NY, Chicago and California, and will stand up for our community values, hold criminals responsible for their actions under the law, and remember victims and their families in the judicial process.
