Lead Prosecutor Removed from John Brennan Investigation Amid Legal Concerns
A lead prosecutor in the investigation of former CIA Director John Brennan has been removed from the case. Maria Medetis Long, who led the national security section at the U.S. Attorney’s office for the Southern District of Florida, expressed doubts about the legal strength of a potential criminal case against Brennan. Her removal follows internal discussions at the Justice Department regarding the sufficiency of evidence for prosecution. The investigation, linked to President Trump's grievances over the 2016 election interference probe, has seen a flurry of subpoenas and preparations for further interviews. The Justice Department stated that attorney reassignments are routine, but did not elaborate on the specifics of Long's departure.
