Wes has over 20 years of experience in the prosecution of criminal cases and the practice of law. During his tenure as an Assistant District Attorney he accumulated an exceptional trial record, winning about 95% of his jury trials.

Wes is very interested in comprehensive solutions to public safety, and has been involved over the years in efforts to create partnerships between police, neighborhoods, universities and other community leaders and government agencies to reduce crime.

Some of such efforts upon which he is presently focusing include both the methamphetamine and prostitution problems that are currently plaguing the greater Oklahoma City area.
