RE: JAMES QUINTANA
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
I was the 112TH District Attorney from 1997 to December 31, 2004. During that
time, James Quintana was employed by my office as our Chief Investigator.
I am proud to say that hiring James was one of the best hiring decisions I made.
He was very thorough in his duties and the pursuit of justice and truth. James
won the respect of the law enforcement communities of the 10 Texas counties
covered by the 83rd and 112TH District Attorneys office. Since leaving office I still call on Quintana Investigations for my backgrounds and advice on investigations.
James was a self-starter while in my employ and was truly devoted to being a
public servant. For example, he conducted numerous education classes
designed to protect citizens, promote professionalism and raise the standards for law enforcement investigations.
He handled all the background investigations for the district including new hires, witnesses, and defendants. Because of his investigation skills we were able to seize millions of dollars from drug dealers. In addition, he worked on the backgrounds of several capital murder cases all while running his business.
On his own initiative, he obtained grant monies so that the peace
officers serving our district and many surrounding counties could have new bullet proof vests. His efforts were certainly appreciated by his fellow officers and his leadership abilities were recognized on a State level with his association with and leadership in the Texas District and County Attorney's Association.
James is a dedicated husband and father. He also served his local church as a teacher. Needless to say, James has been greatly missed by this community. Therefore, it is without hesitation that I recommend that James Quintana. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
