Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff

Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff

Mark L. Shurtleff was re-elected as the Utah Attorney General in November 2004 with a strong 70% of the vote; and is now serving his second term. Since taking office, the number of meth labs have been decreased by two thirds and he has talked to thousands of students and parents about the dangers of drugs. He has also toured the state to warn about the predators on the Internet. The AG's Office investigates and prosecutes child pornographers who use the Internet to abuse children and has a 100% conviction rate. Shurtleff set up Utah's AMBER Alert, helped pass the state's Child Protection Registry and stopped the federal government from illegally taking control of millions of acres of public lands in Utah.

Shurtleff was born and raised in Utah, graduating from Brighton High School, Brigham Young University and the University of Utah School of Law. ... More >>
