After a landslide victory in 2008, 1973 USC Law graduate Steve Cooley became the first L.A. district attorney in more than 70 years to be elected to a third consecutive term.
The following footage from his oath of office ceremony has been provided by the L.A. District Attorney's Office. A news story about his re-election appears in the spring 2009 issue of USC Law Magazine, available for download at http://law.usc.edu/news/publications/usclawmag.cfm.
