SUPPORT JAY TODAY

Over the last fifteen years as a Riverside County Deputy District Attorney, I have prosecuted thousands of criminal cases, including murder, gang crime, organized crime, and major drug trafficking. When the federal government needed my help, I was appointed a Special United States Attorney (special federal prosecutor) by the United States Department of Justice.  In the Riverside County District Attorney’s office, I have been named employee of the month fifteen times and received the 2020 leadership award. I am a member of the Informant Policy Committee and Marijuana Advisory Committee. I train law enforcement throughout Riverside County on informant management, investigations, and California marijuana laws.

If you elect me as a Superior Court Judge for Riverside County, I pledge to: 

- Uphold the constitution and the law

- Bring a high level of integrity, character, and work ethic to the bench 

- Be fair and impartial 

- Protect victims’ rights

Outside of the courtroom, I have worked with at-risk youth at Rain Cross Boxing Gym, and I help coach a nationally ranked youth baseball team. I am honored to be endorsed for judge by Riverside County District Attorney Mike Hestrin, the Riverside County Deputy District Attorney Association, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Association, judges, and attorneys. I respectfully ask for your vote for Jay K. Kiel for Superior Court Judge, Office Number 11.
