Maurene Comey, the Manhattan sex crimes prosecutor fired by President Donald Trump’s Justice Department — who went further than any of her peers in holding notorious sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein and his convicted madame Ghislaine Maxwell to account — warned her longtime colleagues Thursday of a dark new era in which “fear is the tool of a tyrant.

Comey delivered a scathing rebuke of the Trump administration just one day after her abrupt dismissal from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan.

The veteran federal prosecutor who worked on the Epstein case got the axe, but it hasn’t quieted down the uproar.

Comey is the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, who led SDNY from 2002 to 2003. Trump fired James Comey in May 2017 over his handling of the inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s emails, but Democrats have said the move was a result of the FBI investigating alleged links between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Maurene Comey, the Manhattan federal prosecutor who was fired from the US attorney’s office this week, has prosecuted a number of high-profile cases and followed in her father’s, James Comey, footsteps with her work at the Southern District of New York.

New York federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, who worked on the cases against Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Sean "Diddy" Combs, was fired.

The Trump administration records releases on Jeffrey Epstein are finished, but transparency lawsuits may reveal what else the government has kept hidden.

Trump is trying to rebrand the furor as the “Jeffrey Epstein hoax.” After all, the word has served him well in the past; “hoax” has been his go-to description for dismissing true stories that he finds unfavorable.

President Donald Trump is under pressure to have the Justice Department release files on Jeffrey Epstein, the pedophile who killed himself in jail.

The decision to dismiss Comey was delivered as the Justice Department faces renewed scrutiny over its handling of the sex offender's case.
