Comey was an assistant prosecutor of great prestige who successfully prosecuted Ghislaine Maxwell, the former associate of sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein, and multiple gang members before the verdict divided earlier this month in the Sean combs trial, who was convicted of a position related to prostitution, but incorporated into more serious charges.
Comey is the daughter of former FBI director James Comey, who President Donald Trump dismissed during his first term because Russia’s investigation began.
According to the sources, Trump was deprived in private about having a job in his administration.
