Rosenbaum is a 36-year veteran of the Justice Department, having previously served as Director of the Office of Special Investigations. The office is primarily responsible for identifying, denaturalizing and deporting Nazi war criminals.

Hope Olds, acting chief of the Justice Department's Human Rights and Special Prosecutions Section, will join Rosenbaum, along with several other prosecutors from the section.
