Sean Tindell For Attorney General

Sean Tindell has prosecuted criminals, written Mississippi’s criminal laws, ruled on them from the bench, and spent six years commanding the largest law enforcement operation in the state. As a Mississippi native, Sean has remained actively involved in his community, coaching youth sports and speaking to students at schools across the state. Sean and his wife, Claire, live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast with their four children. Sean is running for Attorney General because Mississippi’s chief legal officer should be someone who has actually done the work.

He started by putting criminals away. Sean spent five years as an Assistant District Attorney for Harrison, Hancock, and Stone counties, then served as City Prosecutor for Biloxi. He tried the cases most people only read about, and he learned early that victims don’t care about press conferences. They care about convictions.

He built a business and raised a family. Sean opened his own firm in Gulfport, representing small businesses and government entities across the Coast, including Harrison County and the City of Diamondhead. He met a payroll. He signed the front of a paycheck, not just the back. He and his wife Claire raised four children, Sam, John Thomas, Meredith and Henry in the same community he grew up in.

He wrote the laws. Coast voters sent Sean to the State Senate in 2011, where he rose to Chairman of the Judiciary A Committee, the gatekeeper for Mississippi’s criminal code and civil justice system. He compiled a 100% pro-life voting record and earned an “A” rating from the NRA.

He judged them. Governor Phil Bryant appointed Sean to the Mississippi Court of Appeals in 2017. Voters elected him to a full term the following year. He applied the law as written, not as he wished it were written.

Then Governor Tate Reeves handed him the badge. Since 2020, Sean has served as Commissioner of the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. Sean has led more than 900 law enforcement officers and over 1,600 public safety employees against the cartels trafficking fentanyl and the criminals preying on Mississippi families.
Now he’s running for Attorney General, because Mississippi’s chief legal officer should be someone who has actually done the work, NOT JUST TALK ABOUT IT.
