Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey, was fired as a federal prosecutor in the Manhattan US Attorney’s office on Wednesday.
It is unclear why Maurene Comey was fired.
“There was no specific reason given for her firing from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, according to one of the people who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters,” the AP reported.
Recall that Maurene Comey filed the key court declarations to keep the Epstein files from being released under FOIA.
