State District Judge Susan Hawk begins campaign to oust Craig Watkins as Dallas Co. DA

State District Judge Susan Hawk Wednesday announced her campaign for Dallas County district attorney, saying she would restore integrity and efficiency to the office.

“With nearly two decades as a felony prosecutor and a Criminal Court Judge presiding over high-profile felony cases, I’ve gained experience from both sides of the bench,” Hawk said in a prepared statement. “Our families deserve a District Attorney who will restore integrity, efficiency and a law-and-order spirit.”

On Tuesday Hawk mailed a letter to Gov. Rick Perry resigning from her felony court post.

She’ll also renounce her membership to the Democratic Party and once again become a Republican.
