JOHNSBURY, Vt. (AP) -\n\nThe new state\u2019s attorney for Vermont\u2019s Caledonia County is now on the job.\n\nJessica Zaleski was sworn in Monday at the St. Johnsbury courthouse by Republican Gov. Phil Scott, The Caledonian Record reports.\n\nZaleski, 41, succeeds former county prosecutor Lisa Warren, who was named a Vermont Superior Court judge.\n\nZaleski, who was chosen by Scott from among three names forwarded to him, will complete Warren\u2019s current term, which means she will serve for three more years before needing to seek re-election.\n\nZaleski was born and raised in North Dakota and attended Vermont Law School. She served as a local public defender before joining the team of prosecutors in the state\u2019s attorney\u2019s office.\n\nDuring the courthouse ceremony, Zaleski thanked the governor for choosing her despite a lack of experience.\n\n\u201cYou were open to seeing past that; to taking the time to learn more about my skills and experience that may not have been learned in a courtroom or an office,\u201d Zaleski said.\n\nScott said he chose Zaleski because she met his \u201c4Cs\u201d criteria: Character, Competence, Commitment and Chemistry.\n\n\u201cThese qualities are important for any public servant but especially those charged with upholding justice, and in the interview I was convinced Jessica possessed all four Cs,\u201d Scott said.\n\nSign up for Daily Newsletters Manage Newsletters\n\nCopyright \u00a9 2020 The Washington Times, LLC.", "keywords": [], "meta_keywords": [""], "tags": [], "authors": ["The Washington Times Http"], "publish_date": "Wed Jan  1 00:00:00 2020", "summary": "", "article_html": "", "meta_description": "ST.
