SODA SPRINGS — Sixth District Judge Cody Brower is facing a challenger in this month’s primary election. The 6th judicial district includes Bannock, Bear Lake, Caribou, Franklin, Oneida, and Power counties.
Magistrate Judge Aaron Thompson hopes to unseat Brower, who has been a district judge since his September 2023 appointment by Gov. Brad Little. Brower had served as the Oneida County Prosecuting Attorney since 2016.
Brower recently sat down with EastIdahoNews.com reporter Nate Eaton to discuss why he wants to remain on the bench, plea agreements, misconceptions on the legal system, cameras in the courtroom and more.
