As a prosecutor, Anne Marie Schubert has thrived on being able to pull off what seemed impossible.
Schubert, who has served as Sacramento County's district attorney for eight years, has a reputation for poring over long-forgotten cases and detailed DNA evidence. Her work drew national attention when it led to an arrest and conviction in the infamous case of the Golden State Killer, a serial rapist and murderer who terrorized dozens of victims throughout California in the 1970s and '80s.
"I like to help solve problems," Schubert, 58, said. "And I'm pretty relentless."
