The Judge Candidate Fighting Human Trafficking in Miami
Yaneth del Carmen Baez
Yaneth del Carmen Baez is running for Circuit Court Judge, Seat 69 — and she brings nine years of experience as an Assistant State Attorney in the Human Trafficking Unit, where she was named 2025 Human Trafficking Prosecutor of the Year. In this episode she shares what led her to law, the toughest case of her career, and why she believes temperament and dedication matter just as much as legal knowledge on the bench. We also get into her time as Chief of the Misdemeanor Domestic Violence Unit training over 50 new prosecutors, what a typical day looks like for a judge, judicial college, how countywide judicial elections work, and her focus for her first days in office if elected. Plus her top 3 Miami restaurants. Know who you're voting for on the bench — hear her full story.
