SAN FRANCISCO — When the former U.S. attorney wanted to help Salinas attack its gang violence, he didn’t send in a cop or a prosecutor to get the ball rolling. He sent Annemarie Conroy.
For the past three years, Conroy’s been the unlikely person to hold the job of law enforcement coordinator for the office, a role previously played by police and prosecutors. And while she’s a Republican recruited by Republican prosecutor Joseph Russoniello, Conroy has been embraced, and now elevated, under his Democrat successor Melinda Haag. As of last week, Conroy holds the title of Assistant U.S. attorney. While Conroy is a lawyer and a politician, her talent isn’t winning elections or necessarily in the courtroom. People in and out of the office who have worked with her in her latest role say it’s in speaking lawmen’s language.
