There are no public records of Warren Petersen being charged with, indicted for, or convicted of crimes, corruption, or financial fraud.
Public criticism of Petersen includes his 2026 appearance on a talk show published by David Stringer, a former lawmaker who resigned in 2019 following an ethics investigation into child sex crimes and documented racist comments. Additionally, political opponents have accused Petersen of lacking courtroom experience, engaging in unproven personal attacks against rivals, and being supported by corporate political action committees whose interests may conflict with the attorney general's office. He has also faced scrutiny for using legislative power regarding an Airbnb property he owns and for his past social media activity regarding election fraud claims and pandemic-related rhetoric.
