A federal judge has ruled that the firing of former federal prosecutor Maurene Comey was unconstitutional. Comey had claimed in a lawsuit that her termination was an act of retribution, because her father, former FBI Director James Comey, is a fierce critic of Donald Trump who oversaw investigations into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election. Maurene Comey was in charge of several high-profile cases, including against convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
