Assistant U.S. Attorney John J. Pease, one of the prosecutors in the high-profile federal corruption case against former state Senator Vincent Fumo, has announced he is leaving the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania after nearly 16 years to join Israel-based Teva Pharmaceutical Industries as senior counsel in charge of government investigations for North and South America.
Pease told The Legal on Wednesday that his last day with the U.S. Attorney’s Office is today, and that he’ll start at Teva on Monday.
