Her office was tiny and unpleasant. It was usually too hot or too cold. At first, she didn’t even have an office. Her desk was in a doorway. Still, most of the time, Sonia enjoyed the work. She liked winning cases. But she also knew when it was right to drop the charges. Her bosses had taught her how to be tough but fair. They trusted her judgment.

In 1982, Sonia handled one of the biggest cases of her career as a DA. It was called the Tarzan murder case. The criminal was a man named Richard Maddicks. He robbed apartments by swinging on a rope like Tarzan. He burst through the windows! If someone was home when he broke in, he shot them.

Sonia was chosen to help out on the case. She had to interview the witnesses—just like a detective. And just like Nancy Drew, she found a clue that helped prove Maddicks was guilty! Her smart work helped put the Tarzan murderer in jail.
