The lawyer, who is also the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, had also worked on the cases against Jeffrey Epstein and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

Comey prosecuted Sean “Diddy” Combs this year and played a role in the investigation and subsequent prosecutions of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Maurene Comey told colleagues in a farewell email that she was fired as a federal prosecutor without being told a reason but urged them not to succumb to the "fear" she said her termination could cause.
