Harry L. Shorstein (born August 3, 1940) is an American lawyer who served as State Attorney for Florida's Fourth Judicial Circuit Court, covering Duval, Clay and Nassau counties, from 1991–2008.〔(State Attorney's Office - Fourth Circuit )〕 A member of the Democratic Party, he was appointed to the post in 1991 by Governor Lawton Chiles to fill the remaining term of Ed Austin, who resigned to successfully run for mayor of Jacksonville. He was elected to a full term in 1992, re-elected in 1996, and ran unopposed in 2000 and 2004. At a February 6, 2007 news conference, the 66-year-old lawyer announced that he would not run for re-election in 2008.〔(First Coast News.com: Feb 6, 2007-Harry Shorstein Not Running for Re-election )〕 He subsequently returned to private practice,〔Patton, Charlie: () Florida Times-Union, January 7, 2009-3 state attorneys leaving: Shorstein, Tanner, Blair〕〔 and was succeeded as State Attorney by Angela Corey.
==Career==
Shorstein grew up in Jacksonville and attended the University of Florida in Gainesville, where he received his bachelor's and law degrees. He was admitted to the Florida Bar on October 25, 1965.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.floridabar.org/names.nsf/0/D5FCDA24899158CC85256A83001B81F3?OpenDocument )〕 He was multiply honored for service in Vietnam as a Captain in the United States Marine Corps with a Bronze Star Medal with Combat "V", a Combat Action Ribbon, the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry, and a Presidential Unit Citation. After the war, he was hired by Public Defender Lou Frost and worked in that office before switching sides to the prosecution in 1970 as Division Head and Chief Assistant State Attorney. In 1974, Shorstein began two years as General Counsel for the City of Jacksonville, then switched to private practice for 15 years. In 1991 he was appointed State Attorney. Among the cases prosecuted during his term was the Brenton Butler case, in which the 15-year-old Butler was wrongfully accused of murder, and was later acquitted.〔Pinkham, Paul (February 23, 2001). ("Butler case spotlights interrogations" ) ''The Florida Times-Union''. Retrieved July 7, 2009.〕 Since leaving office he joined the firm Shorstein & Lasnetski, where he works with his youngest son, Paul.〔〔 He had recently been considered for appointment as the United States Attorney for the Middle District of Florida.〔Pinkham, Paul: () Florida Times-Union, June 12, 2009-Shorstein seeking Florida U.S. attorney position〕 His successor, Angela Corey (who had been fired by Shorstein in 2007), "sent a letter to Florida’s senators demanding that they oppose Shorstein’s pending nomination as a U.S. attorney," writing that “he should not hold a position of authority in his community again, because of his penchant for using the grand jury for personal vendettas.”〔Tuttle, Ian (2013-07-17) (Angela Corey's Checkered Past ), ''National Review''〕 As of June 10, 2010, President Barack Obama had selected career federal prosecutor Bobby O'Neill, out of Tampa, for the position.〔(additional text. )〕
