Trump’s Trio of NJ Prosecutors Summoned Before Angry Judge

An angry federal judge ordered the trio of attorneys running the US Attorney’s Office in New Jersey to testify before him about their leadership structure which has been ruled illegal, saying the prosecutors “have lost the confidence and the trust” of the courts, lawyers and the public.

US District Judge Zahid Quraishi ruled Monday that the three lawyers must testify about the office’s operations before he will sentence a man convicted of possessing child pornography. Quraishi said the trio must answer his questions about the current structure and leadership of the office, any plans to change it, and the legal authority of the prosecutor handling the pornography case.
