Protecting Pennsylvania Against Crime
Making Pennsylvania a safer place to live, work and raise a family is a top priority for Attorney General Tom Corbett.
"Public safety is the number one mission for government on all levels," Corbett said. "If we can't protect our citizens from crime; if we can't protect our citizens from illegal drugs, child predators and an assortment of other threats, our communities will not grow and our citizens will not prosper."
The Office of Attorney General has a wide range of responsibilities, and our public safety work is conducted in many different ways.
The Criminal Law Division is the largest single section within the office, handling a variety of investigations and prosecutions, including drug enforcement, Internet child predators, organized crime, corruption, insurance fraud, tax crimes, environmental crimes, plus a host of cases referred by local District Attorneys.
