Malcolm Gwinn, Deputy Prosecutor

A Humble, Learned, & Innovative Choice for Vanderburgh Superior Court Judge

Malcolm Gwinn and his wife Sherry have been married for 29 years and have raised two children Cameron, age 26 and Courtney, age 22 in the Evansville community. Malcolm attended Bosse High School and the University of Evansville followed by law school at Indiana University-Indianapolis School of Law. Gwinn felt the call of home when it came time to establish roots and raise a family, so he returned to Evansville.

Through the years of raising his family, Malcolm has been very passionate about this community and, in particular, its youth. He has been involved in many leadership positions with regard to youth activities. Perhaps his most recognized role has been as a volunteer for the Evansville Soccer Club, serving as its Vice President for eight years. Gwinn has civic interests outside of athletics as well. He is a member of the Kiwanis Club and has volunteered numerous times for Habitat for Humanity. He is also very active in his church.

Malcolm joined a private law practice with his partner, Toby Shaw, where he worked for 16 years. He primarily focused on civil litigation cases as well as serving as Assistant City Attorney. After that time, he answered the call to serve the public in the Prosecutor’s Office. Gwinn currently serves as a Deputy Prosecutor for the Vanderburgh County Prosecutor’s Office. Malcolm has a unique mixture of extensive experience in both civil and criminal law.

In 2005, Malcolm was called upon to assume the position of the Director of the Vanderburgh County Child Support Office. It is in this role that Gwinn’s passion for mentoring has been optimally utilized. His compassionate, kind, and deliberate approach to collect the much needed support for children has actually resulted in inspiring better and more responsible parenting. Gwinn’s innovative approaches in collecting child support led to a 38% increase in collections while raising Vanderburgh County by 12 places in the efficiency of collection statewide. Each person was treated as an individual by Gwinn, and he would meet with anyone who came to the office. Currently, Malcolm’s duties at the Prosecutor’s Office include prosecuting people involved in manufacturing methamphetamine and other serious crimes. He feels very strongly about making this a safe community in which to live.

Gwinn’s thoughtful sense of awareness coupled with his desire to inspire positive improvements to all of the people whose lives he is privileged to touch, makes him an ideal candidate to succeed Judge Douglas Knight as Vanderburgh Superior Court Judge. He has the motivation to serve, the energy to carry out the duties of the office, and the deliberative passion to make each trial an opportunity for all of those involved to receive fairness in our judicial process. Malcolm also brings a fresh set of eyes and ears to the bench.

Building self- esteem and character in others has been Malcolm Gwinn’s passion in life. As a coach, a civic volunteer, a Sunday school teacher, and as an officer of the court, Gwinn has led an exemplary life that serves to set him apart as a uniquely qualified person to serve as Vanderburgh Superior Court Judge.

  1. Would like to know how it is, that last saturday Mr Gwinn was at the 2nd Amendment Patriots meeting soliciting conservatives votes. After that meeting Mr Gwinn, left and then with his wife went to the fundraiser of “Let ‘Em Go Levco” at the Pub.

    Says he can’t show favoritism in the Prosecutor’s race, but shows favoritism by going to a FUNDRAISER!

  2. As a buisness owner I would not vote for Mr.Gwinn. Not too long ago I had an employee that had fallen behind on his child support, this was a hard working dad who had lost his previous job due to the bad economy. He was a dad who cared for his child and took the best care of the child. He was trying to get caught up on his child support and making headway. Soon after, my buisness was summoned by Mr. Gwinn to pay his back support. Mr. Gwinn was in charge at that point. Mr. Gwinn seems to treat all dads with child support as criminals, he tried to go after the building commission to see if my company was licensed or not. Attacking my buisness was his ethical way of collecting child support. He even threatened to go after the buisness assets to make sure the childs drug addict mom got paid her money. I eventually loaned the employee the money to get caught up and he paid me back within a couple of months. If this is the kind of man you want in office then you are a part of the problem that that has caused america to be in the shape it’s in.
