A local and state political kingmaker, Mamoulides (pronounced MAM OH LEE DEES) pushed for policies with legislators and governors to enhance law enforcement. Unlike many prosecutors, Mamoulides said that as DA he emphasized not the rate of criminal convictions but each individual case to determine if the suspect was indeed guilty. He strongly supported the admission of exculpatory evidence, which many prosecutors try to keep out of the grand jury record.<ref name=obit/>
