Federal Judge To Investigate DOJ Attorneys

WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge says she intends to appoint an ex-top federal prosecutor in the nation’s capital during President Donald Trump’s first term to investigate whether she was purposefully misled by lawyers and administration officials in a lawsuit challenging the renovation of a historic public golf course along the Potomac River. Former U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu would examine whether officials with the Interior Department and the National Park Service and attorneys with the Department of Justice violated ethics or misled U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes during the course of the case that was initiated in February by the DC Preservation League and two golfers.
