State Attorney Fernandez Rundle has always prioritized diversity within the SAO. Minority staff bring their experiences and knowledge to every decision they make and add valuable perspective. Despite the fact that the SAO cannot pay Assistant State Attorneys and support staff personnel anywhere near as much as they could make in the private sector, State Attorney Fernandez Rundle has developed a staff that the Daily Business Review once recognized as possibly “be the most diverse” in South Florida. See Dominguez, E., Commentary – Swing open door to diversity, Daily Business Review (2007).
