The Justice Department on Friday evening abruptly fired at least three prosecutors who persecuted January 6 defendants, according to the Associated Press.
The prosecutors who were fired were not named in the report.
The AP reported that two of the attorneys fired were high-ranking supervisors who oversaw January 6 cases and one line attorney who prosecuted January 6 defendants.
The AP reported:
The Justice Department on Friday fired at least three prosecutors involved in U.S. Capitol riot criminal cases, the latest moves by the Trump administration targeting attorneys connected to the massive prosecution of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Those dismissed include two attorneys who worked as supervisors overseeing the Jan. 6 prosecutions in the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington as well as a line attorney who prosecuted cases stemming from the Capitol attack, the people said. They spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters.
A letter that was received by one of the prosecutors was signed by Attorney General Pam Bondi. The letter did not provide a reason for their removal, effective immediately, citing only “Article II of the United States Constitution and the laws of the United States,” according to a copy seen by The Associated Press.
