Greg Bovino Mocked Prosecutor’s Jewish Faith: NYT

Gregory Bovino reportedly mocked U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen’s Orthodox Jewish faith during a DOJ call amid fallout from Renee Good’s shooting and just before six prosecutors resigned.

  • The New York Times reported Saturday that Border Patrol field leader Gregory Bovino disparaged U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen during a DOJ conference call on Jan. 12.
  • Tensions arose on Jan. 12 when Bovino disparaged Rosen, who observes Shabbat, for being unavailable during a call, according to The New York Times.
  • On the call, Bovino reportedly said he mocked `chosen people` and sarcastically asked if Orthodox Jewish criminals `don’t take weekends off`, according to people with knowledge of the call.
  • Neither Bovino nor the DOJ responded when lawyers in the Minneapolis field office said Bovino's comments left them `deeply unsettled`, and the call came a day before six federal prosecutors resigned.
  • Bovino, long the public face of immigration enforcement, was reassigned shortly after scoffing at Alex Pretti as a victim, while DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin urged focus on victims and Bovino told CNN `The victims are the Border Patrol agents`.
