HELP WANTED: PUBLIC INTEGRITY VACANCY
Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer calls the public integrity section a “crown jewel” in the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. spent more than a decade there as a trial attorney. But some might say the jewel could use a little polishing these days. Breuer, who heads the Criminal Division, announced on Oct. 21 that the department will conduct a nationwide search to replace William Welch II, who came under fire for his supervisory role in the botched prosecution of former Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens.
