CRIMINALS FOR COLLINS: MEET DANNY CLORE
ATLANTA - Before he was a career politician, Doug Collins made big bucks as a criminal defense attorney. Doug and his partner, Tom Csider, worked diligently to get criminal charges reduced or dropped for violent criminals - including illegal immigrants, sex offenders, drug dealers, and other heinous offenders. After they successfully freed these criminals, many of their defendants went on to commit more crimes in communities across Georgia.
Today, let's take a closer look at Danny Clore - one of the criminals Doug worked to free, and the inaugural member of the Criminals for Collins Coalition.

In 2009, Doug defended Danny Clore on charges of meth distribution and marijuana possession. The meth charge was dismissed, and the marijuana charge was discharged (thanks, Doug!). Unfortunately, Danny went on to commit more crimes, including aggravated assault, illegal possession of a firearm and obstructing a police officer. In 2015, Danny led the police on a high-speed chase after shooting at two vehicles with passengers inside. When the police finally caught and arrested Danny, he was found in possession of meth.
Obviously, Danny Clore should never have been on the streets. But thanks to Doug Collins, Danny slipped justice to commit more crimes and put Georgia families at risk.
In the race for the U.S. Senate, it's clear that Georgians cannot trust D.C. Doug to keep them safe. There's only one law-and-order conservative in this race, and that's Kelly Loeffler.
