After a yearlong clerkship, he moved to Brazos County in 2002 and began his career at the Brazos County District Attorney’s Office. He has been there for over 21 years, prosecuting offenders for robbery, child abuse and murder, and has sought the death penalty on multiple occasions for the most heinous of offenders.

On a local level, Parsons is on the governing board Scotty’s House Child Advocacy Center and the local Sexual Assault Resource Center. Parsons has been innovative on the local level by starting the Brazos County Citizen’s Prosecutor Academy that gives the public an in-depth look at how a District Attorney’s Office works. He also brought the “Cut It Out” program to Brazos County, which teaches local hairstylists to recognize the signs of domestic violence in their customers and how to safely provide needed resources. Parsons has been married to Amiee Parsons (his college sweetheart) for the past 22 years and they have one daughter, Erin. They have been faithful members at Skybreak Church for the past 21 years, actively serving as small group leaders and Children’s Ministry volunteers. |
