Judge Sorsaia Resigns Amid Alzheimer’s Diagnosis | Charleston News
Description
Putnam County Circuit Court Judge Mark Sorsaia is stepping down at the end of this month after announcing his resignation due to a recent diagnosis of early-stage Alzheimer’s — a powerful reminder that even public figures face profound personal health challenges. Before his judicial role, Sorsaia spent nearly 28 years as Putnam County Prosecutor and later served as West Virginia’s Cabinet Secretary for Homeland Security. His resignation follows a May election victory and comes just months after being appointed to the bench by then-Governor Jim Justice. His departure closes a major chapter in the county’s legal history, marking the end of a decades-long legacy of public service.
