- Maurene Comey, a federal prosecutor in Manhattan and the child of ex-FBI Director James Comey, was unexpectedly dismissed by the Justice Department in July 2025.
- Her firing occurs amid a Justice Department pattern of dismissing prosecutors without explanation, including those working on cases that angered President Donald Trump.
- Comey prosecuted high-profile cases against Jeffrey Epstein and Sean "Diddy" Combs, and she had previously cautioned that fear is used by tyrants to suppress independent judgment.
- In a note obtained by the Associated Press, Maurene Comey warned that dismissing a seasoned prosecutor arbitrarily could instill fear in those left behind, urging her colleagues to respond with a strong sense of justified outrage rather than intimidation.
- Her termination adds to criticism directed at Attorney General Pam Bondi for withholding Epstein investigation evidence and fuels concerns about politicized firings in the Justice Department.
