James Comey’s Daughter Maurene On NY Posse To Take Trump Down
”Prosecutors in Manhattan’s Southern District aren’t saddled with a limited mandate like special counsel Robert Mueller in his Russia probe; they can follow the trail wherever it leads.” (nbcnews.com , March 25, 2019.)
.
“Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz, whose legal analysis defending Trump has been praised by the president, said the office’s independence is “one of the reasons” the Manhattan investigations provide Trump with “much more to worry about” than the Mueller probe.
“New York has always had a degree of independence, and that’s a reality,” Dershowitz said. “And I think the U.S. attorneys can take advantage of that.”
“They still have to run their indictments up through the hierarchy and get approval,” he added. “No member of the Trump family is going to be prosecuted without it going through the Justice Department.”
With a staff of about 220 assistant U.S. attorneys, SDNY is one of the largest in the country.
“The United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York is the chief federal law enforcement officer in eight New York counties: New York (Manhattan), Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess and Sullivan. (Wikipedia)
“Geoffrey Berman currently serves as United States Attorney, since replacing Acting Attorney Joon Kim on January 5, 2018 and being indefinitely appointed on April 25, 2018. Preet Bharara was the district’s previous U.S. Attorney, having been appointed under President Barack Obama in 2009. Bharara served until March 11, 2017, when he was fired by President Donald Trump, shortly after refusing to resign upon request.The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has jurisdiction over all cases prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney.
“The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (in case citations, S.D.N.Y.), known informally as The Mother Court, is a federal district court.
“The Southern District is one of the most influential and active federal district courts in the United States, largely because of its jurisdiction over New York’s major financial centers.”
From the True Life Is Stranger Than Fiction Department, James Comey’s 30-year-old daughter Maurene Comey is on the SDNY posse that will carry on investigating the Trump-Russia conspiracy.
Like her father who served as a US attorney for SDNY from Jan. 7, 2002 to Dec. 15, 2003, Maurene Comey has been an assistant US attorney in the SDNY office since 2015.
Maurene Comey went to William and Mary School, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in History & Music and attended Harvard Law School.
Her position at the SDNY office may have gone ignored had not The Daily Mail raked over the coals of the ex-FBI director’s career as “a hedge fund high roller” living high off the hog, in an April 1st story:
“James Comey was a hedge fund high roller when he lived with his family in the tony enclave of Westport, Connecticut until he was tapped to run the FBI in 2013,” the Daily Mail reported. (Daily Mail, April 1, 2019)
“Comey bought the estate on more than three acres not far from where Martha Stewart used to live for $3,050,000 in August 2010.
“But now he’s had to reduce the price four times - down to $2.5 million and he still doesn’t have a buyer for the palatial estate.
“It’s a seven bedroom, nine bath, 7,157 square foot gated home in one of Connecticut’s ritziest Gold Coast towns.
“Residents of the neighborhood over the years included such powerful, moneyed Democrat neighbors as Stewart and Harvey Weinstein.
“Comey, who has a net worth of $11 million, lived like a king during the six years he spent at the Connecticut home.
“When he bought the home, he had been hired as general counsel by the Westport-headquartered $150 billion hedge fund Bridgewater Associates.”
“Stewart’s former Turkey Hill estate - which she sold in 2007 - is just a hop skip and a jump from Comey’s sprawling 3.17 acres.
