Longtime career prosecutor, Ronald Brandon, announced today he will officially be ending his duties at the Sabine District Attorney’s office on Wednesday, October 8th.

Brandon will be a candidate for Sabine District Attorney in the election to be held in the fall of 2026.

“I have decided the right thing to do is to leave my job so I will not be on the public’s payroll while running for a public office,” Brandon said. “I want to be your district attorney, but I strongly believe the public’s hard earned tax dollars should not support me while I pursue a political campaign,” Brandon continued.
