Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner has appointed former Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge Carolyn Engel Temin as his first assistant.
The DA's Office made the announcement Thursday morning in a statement outlining Krasner's choices to fill top roles within the office, including unit heads and task force leaders. Although some of those appointed come from outside the office, most are longtime prosecutors from within the local ranks.
Temin, who was admitted to the Pennsylvania bar in 1963, has had a long and notable career in the Philadelphia criminal justice world. She began her career as the first staff attorney to be hired at the Defender Association of Philadelphia, and later became an assistant district attorney. She was elected to the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas in 1983, and eventually became the chief criminal calendar judge. She was also the first woman to be elected president of the Pennsylvania Conference of State Trial Judges in 1992.
