Carla Freedman, the top federal prosecutor for a swath of upstate New York, officially announced the end of her time in the role late on Monday, while Trini Ross, another U.S. attorney, in Buffalo, appeared to signal her four-year tenure had also come to a close.
Turnover among the 93 U.S. attorneys is typical during the early days of a new presidential administration, and U.S. attorneys in other parts of the country confirmed, unlike Freedman and Ross, that they had resigned at President Donald Trump’s request.
