During Alsobrooks' tenure as state's attorney, she opposed removing school resource officers from Prince George's County public schools. She also sought harsh sentences for juveniles who committed violent crimes and supported increasing minimum sentences for people convicted of illegal gun possession, but also supported programs to make it easier to get convictions expunged, divert juveniles from the criminal justice system, and help nonviolent drug offenders attend community college or vocational training. As county executive, Alsobrooks defended the Prince George's County Police Department from a racial discrimination lawsuit in which the county spent at least $17 million and settled for $5.8 million in July 2021.{{cite news |last1=Wilkins |first1=Tracee |title=Prince George's Settles Officers' Lawsuit Alleging Race Discrimination, Retaliation |url=https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/prince-georges-county/prince-georges-settles-officers-lawsuit-alleging-race-discrimination-retaliation/2734297/ |access-date=September 27, 2024 |work=WRC-TV |date=July 20, 2021}}

When Alsobrooks was eight years old she was diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which led to her attending youth theater programs at Howard University.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEDQGptQhe0|title=The Rock Newman Show Ep.809 - Angela Alsobrooks|work=WHUT-TV|date=March 7, 2019|access-date=July 27, 2023|via=YouTube}}{{cite news |last1=Ford |first1=William J. |title=Alsobrooks Talks Goals for Arts as County Executive |url=https://www.washingtoninformer.com/alsobrooks-talks-goals-for-arts-as-county-executive/ |access-date=July 28, 2023 |work=The Washington Informer |date=November 14, 2018}} Her daughter also has ADHD.

In September 2024, CNN reported that Alsobrooks had improperly benefited from tax breaks she did not qualify for, including one meant for low-income senior citizens, allowing her to save nearly $14,000 in taxes on a property she owned in northeast Washington, D.C. between 2005 and 2017. She also saved at least $2,600 in taxes on a townhouse she owned in Prince George's County after applying for a homestead exemption in 2008. She later began to rent out the property while still taking the homestead exemption, violating state and local tax relief requirements. D.C. tax officials later determined that Alsobrooks owed the district $47,580 in property taxes.{{cite news |last1=Barker |first1=Jeff |title=Angela Alsobrooks receives DC property tax underpayments bill: $47,580 |url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/2024/10/07/angela-alsobrooks-receives-final-dc-property-tax-bill/ |access-date=October 7, 2024 |work=The Baltimore Sun |date=October 7, 2024}} Alsobrooks's Senate campaign told CNN that she paid the mortgage of her grandmother's home in northeast Washington until it was sold in 2018 and was unaware of any tax credits attached to the property,{{cite news |last1=Raju |first1=Manu |last2=Steck |first2=Em |title=Angela Alsobrooks improperly claimed tax deductions on DC, Maryland properties, records show |url=https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/22/politics/angela-alsobrooks-improper-tax-deductions/index.html |access-date=September 22, 2024 |work=CNN |date=September 22, 2024 |language=en}} and later told The Washington Post that she would pay back any taxes that should have been applied to the properties.{{cite news |last1=Shepherd |first1=Katie |title=Angela Alsobrooks will pay back taxes on D.C., Prince George's homes |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/09/22/alsobrooks-senate-taxes-error/ |access-date=September 22, 2024 |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=September 22, 2024}} The New York Times later obtained mortgage documents that show Alsobrooks attesting that she would live in the D.C. property for at least a year—she never did, instead using it as a rental property, making her ineligible for the homestead exemption she received.{{cite news |last1=Broadwater |first1=Luke |title=Maryland Senate Race Becomes a Slugfest as Both Parties Eye High Stakes |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/09/us/politics/maryland-senate-hogan-alsobrooks.html |access-date=October 9, 2024 |work=The New York Times |date=October 9, 2024}} As of December 2024, Alsobrooks had paid the taxes she owed the District of Columbia.{{cite news |last1=Taylor |first1=Scott |date=December 3, 2024 |title=US Senator-Elect Angela Alsobrooks pays off her DC property tax bill |url=https://wjla.com/features/i-team/united-states-maryland-senate-senator-elect-angela-alsobrooks-pays-off-dc-property-tax-bill-prince-georges-county-executive-2024-general-elections-larry-hogan-washington-home |access-date=December 3, 2024 |work=WJLA-TV |language=en}}
