The Ministry of Justice released officials on Monday who were involved in the former special advisor Jack Smith in the now terminated criminal prosecution of President Donald Trump.
The shots come for a week after Trump sworn in for a second, not consecutive term in the White House.
“Today, the incumbent Attorney General James Mchenry ended the employment of a number of Doj officials who played an important role in the persecution of President Trump,” said a DoJ officer to NBC News.
“In view of her actions, the Attorney General does not trust these officials to faithfully implement the President's agenda,” said this official. “This action is in line with the mission to end the government's weapon.”
The department was not announced by the department.
However, NBC reported that an official confidante with the matter said that the Molly Gaston, JP Cooney, Anne McNamara and Mary Dohrmann were among the termination.
“The dismissal of prosecutors due to cases they work is only unacceptable,” former US lawyer Joyce Vance told NBC News.
“It is a legal scale, it is anti -democracy,” said Vance, who is the NBC News law beginner.
Fox News reported on Monday on Monday that Mchenry had released more than a dozen civil servants who had worked on Smith's law enforcement of Trump.
Smith, who had resigned from the Doj on January 10, had submitted criminal charges against Trump in two separate cases: one before the Federal District Court in Washington, DC, the second federal district court in Südflorida.
In the DC case, Trump was accused of reversing his defeat against former President Joe Biden in the 2020 elections.
The case of the voting mix was dismissed by the Doj after Trump was elected president in November, since a department directive of the federal prosecution excludes president.
In the case of Florida, Trump was charged with crimes that were associated with his storage of classified government documents in January 2021, and his efforts to prevent government officials from gaining these records from his Mar-A-Lago club in Palm Beach.
The case of the classified documents was rejected by the US district judge Aileen Cannon in July after deciding that Smith's appointment as a special consultant had violated the US constitution.
The DOJ had appealed against the dismissal of Cannon, but has dropped these efforts after Trump won the election in 2020 because of his policy in connection with the persecution of President.
