Maurene Comey, the Manhattan sex crimes prosecutor fired by President Donald Trump’s Justice Department — who went further than any of her peers in holding notorious sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein and his convicted madame Ghislaine Maxwell to account — warned her longtime colleagues Thursday of a dark new era in which “fear is the tool of a tyrant.

Comey is the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, who led SDNY from 2002 to 2003. Trump fired James Comey in May 2017 over his handling of the inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s emails, but Democrats have said the move was a result of the FBI investigating alleged links between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Maurene Comey, the Manhattan federal prosecutor who was fired from the US attorney’s office this week, has prosecuted a number of high-profile cases and followed in her father’s, James Comey, footsteps with her work at the Southern District of New York.

Comey, a veteran federal prosecutor who worked on the Jeffrey Epstein case, was fired as President Trump seeks to downplay reaction to the matter.

New York federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, who worked on the cases against Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Sean "Diddy" Combs, was fired.

Comey delivered a scathing rebuke of the Trump administration just one day after her abrupt dismissal from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan.

The Trump administration records releases on Jeffrey Epstein are finished, but transparency lawsuits may reveal what else the government has kept hidden.

The lawyer, who is also the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, had also worked on the cases against Jeffrey Epstein and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

President Donald Trump is under pressure to have the Justice Department release files on Jeffrey Epstein, the pedophile who killed himself in jail.

The decision to dismiss Comey was delivered as the Justice Department faces renewed scrutiny over its handling of the sex offender's case.
