What Ninth Judicial District Attorney does

The Ninth Judicial District Attorney's Office is a state government prosecution agency serving the Ninth Judicial District of New Mexico, covering Curry County (Clovis) and Roosevelt County (Portales). The office prosecutes criminal cases including homicide, assault, robbery, sexual offenses, and drug trafficking, and operates the Victim Impact Program (VIP), the Break The Cycle domestic violence prevention program, and a 24/7 Victim Advocate Program that responds to hospitals and law enforcement.

The office is led by District Attorney Quentin Ray, supported by Chief Deputy District Attorney Jake Boazman and Deputy District Attorneys Brian Stover and Brittany Hudson, plus Assistant DAs, investigators, and victim advocates totaling 11–50 staff. It maintains a documented partner network spanning Hartley House (domestic violence shelter), Arise Sexual Assault Services, NM Legal Aid, United Way of Eastern New Mexico, UNM Early Childhood Services Center, Paloma's Play Corner, and Curry County Crime Stoppers. Operational signals include active attorney recruitment, an open RFP (No. 25-001) for supplemental outside legal services, and a 2026 renovation creating a child-friendly Victim Services space.

Funding comes exclusively through New Mexico state government appropriations; no commercial pricing applies and no revenue figures are disclosed. The office is recognized by the 2026 New Mexico District Attorney's Association with three staff awards (Prosecutor of the Year, Junior Prosecutor of the Year, Support Staff Employee of the Year).

Others

• National District Attorneys Association: The NDAA is the national professional association representing over 2,500 local prosecutors and DA offices across the United States. It is an adjacent/ecosystem organization because it does not prosecute cases itself but provides training, advocacy, and best-practice sharing that the Ninth Judicial DA's Office relies on for professional development.
• New Mexico Crime Victims Reparation Commission: The NM Crime Victims Reparation Commission administers state compensation funds for victims of violent crime and supports victim advocacy programs statewide. It is an ecosystem partner because it directly funds and complements the Victim Impact Program services the Ninth Judicial DA's Office provides to Curry and Roosevelt County victims.

Broad incumbents

• Maricopa County Attorney's Office (Arizona): The Maricopa County Attorney's Office prosecutes criminal cases and provides victim services across Arizona's most populous county. It is a broad incumbent because it performs the same prosecution and victim advocacy functions but at significantly larger scale and as part of a broader county-level legal portfolio.
• New Mexico Attorney General's Office: The NM Attorney General's Office prosecutes statewide matters and provides legal counsel to state agencies, operating at a higher jurisdictional level than county DA offices. It is a broad incumbent because it overlaps in prosecution and victim-related legal work but covers the entire state rather than a single district.
• Los Angeles County District Attorney: The LA County DA's Office is the largest local prosecution office in the United States, handling felony prosecution, victim services, and specialized units. It is a broad incumbent because its core function (criminal prosecution and victim advocacy) directly mirrors the Ninth Judicial DA, but operates at vastly greater scale and complexity.

Direct peers

• Second Judicial District Attorney (Bernalillo County, NM): The Bernalillo County DA's Office is the largest DA office in New Mexico, prosecuting criminal cases and providing victim services in the Albuquerque metropolitan area. It is a direct peer because both entities are state-funded prosecution offices operating under the same New Mexico statutory framework and District Attorney's Association.
• Eleventh Judicial District Attorney (McKinley & San Juan Counties, NM): The Eleventh Judicial DA's Office serves a multi-county rural district in northwestern New Mexico, handling felony prosecution and victim services. It is a direct peer because it shares the same rural judicial district profile, NM DA Association membership, and statutory framework as the Ninth Judicial District.
• First Judicial District Attorney (Santa Fe, Rio Arriba & Los Alamos Counties, NM): The First Judicial DA's Office serves a multi-county district in northern New Mexico, performing criminal prosecution and victim advocacy. It is a direct peer sharing the same statutory authority, NM DA Association membership, and rural/mixed geography profile as the Ninth Judicial District.
