U.S. Attorney Durham Announces Departure from Office
After serving as the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut for more than three years, and as a federal prosecutor in Connecticut for more than 38 years, John H. Durham today announced his resignation from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, effective at midnight on February 28.
“My career has been as fulfilling as I could ever have imagined when I graduated from law school way back in 1975,” said U.S. Attorney Durham. “Much of that fulfillment has come from all the people with whom I’ve been blessed to share this workplace, and in our partner law enforcement agencies. My love and respect for this Office and the vitally important work done here have never diminished. It has been a tremendous honor to serve as U.S. Attorney, and as a career prosecutor before that, and I will sorely miss it.”
Prior to his appointment as an interim U.S. Attorney in November 2017 and subsequently as the presidentially appointed U.S. Attorney in February 2018, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in various positions in the District of Connecticut for 35 years, prosecuting complex organized crime, violent crime, public corruption and financial fraud matters. From 1978 to 1982, he served as an Assistant State’s Attorney in the New Haven State’s Attorney’s Office, and from 1977 to 1978, he served as a Deputy Assistant State’s Attorney in the Office of the Chief State’s Attorney.
First Assistant U.S. Attorney Leonard C Boyle will serve as Acting U.S. Attorney upon Mr. Durham’s departure.
“The Office will be in the extraordinarily capable hands of Len and our superb supervisory team who, together, guarantee that the proper administration of justice will continue uninterrupted in our District.”
Mr. Boyle has served as First Assistant U.S. Attorney since June 2018, when he returned to the U.S. Attorney’s Office after serving as Deputy Chief State’s Attorney in Connecticut for approximately nine years. He previously served in the U.S. Attorney’s Office from 1986 to 1998, and from 1999 to 2004.
Mr. Boyle is the 53rd U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, an office that was established in 1789.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 54 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

He leaves having accomplished nothing but wasting more taxpayer dollars on a right wing witch hunt.
Durham, his departure and his investigations are the topic.
Big FAT NOTHING BURGER...all that talk about uh oh Durham's on the case, watch out, people are going to jail.
Surprise, surprise, not.
Some NT members aren't going to be happy about this they were waiting and waiting for the big announcement of his findings.
Some folks are going to be devastated.
Yep, I think we all know who, as well.
if only there was a way to tell, who might have been a fan of this ass clown ...
what article...
Proving again the some cannot get anything right!
Hahahahaha! I told y'all there was no there there...
This announcement is a little misleading. Durham is still special counsel for the so called "Russiagate " investigation.
What he resigned from is his position in Connecticut. In fact he was asked for his resignation just as many federal prosecutors are when a new administration takes office.
He has nothing to show for his 2 year long investigation into the deep state, but that is not the main reason he is leaving his job in Connecticut.

Sounds like you're a fan John, good for you.
fan of who? I just seeded an article about Durham's flop the other day.
I was teasing you John, relax.
You are correct. Seems like DOJ should have put that in the release, though.
HAHAHAHHA
He's still the special counsel.
Watching the dummies eat the trash on this is too perfect. .
Who are you calling, "Dummies"?
Sean you regularly defend and support the biggest idiot ever to appear in American politics. You have no standing to call other people dummies.
I've never said a nice word about Harry Reid.
now don't that trump all....
Don't get too excited. Per the AP:
Durham remains special counsel overseeing Trump-Russia probe
If he had found anything, we would know by now..
like most republicans, I doubt he could find his ass with both hands.
We better check the calendar to see if it's Opposite Day.
Of course.
