Winnebago County State's Attorneys Office

Joe Bruscato

State's Attorney

Our Mission

The mission of the State's Attorneys Office is to serve the interests of the people of Winnebago County by vigorously and fairly prosecuting the violations of the Illinois Criminal Statutes and Winnebago County ordinances, by being attentive to the concerns of victims and witnesses that arise from those violations, and by providing legal services to all offices of Winnebago County government.

While the most recognizable function of the Winnebago County State's Attorneys Office is to uphold the law regarding the commission of crimes within the county, the powers of the Winnebago County State's Attorneys Office has a broad range of duties.  The office's underling mission is the "pursuit of justice."
