I’ve had the great fortune to work with Rico Tessandore as his legal secretary in the Property Crimes/Drug Unit of the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for five years prior to my retirement. I was impressed by his intelligence, work ethic, caring manner and personal values.
I strongly feel his experience as judge pro tem in both Superior and District courts, his trial experience and daily exposure to the court system in Snohomish County, and the absolute integrity of his character make Rico Tessandore the best choice for Superior Court judge.
Rico is a family man, was impeccably raised by a single parent, and is the first person in his family to have graduated college. His many impressive endorsements include those of the Washington attorney general, many Superior Court, District Court, and Appellate Court judges, law enforcement officials, community leaders, and the sole endorsement of the Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney’s Union.
Rico Tessandore would make an outstanding addition to the Snohomish County Superior Court bench and I urge everyone to consider him as our next Superior Court judge.
