Deep State Prosecutor Who Authored Leaked Letitia James Memo Was Fired After She Sent Case Files to Her Personal Email Account

 Elizabeth Yusi, a senior prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, was fired for leaking a memo regarding New York Attorney General Letitia James and mishandling case files. This incident is surrounded by controversies related to the indictment of James.

1. Background of the Incident: Elizabeth Yusi authored a memo that was leaked to ABC News, which aimed to discredit an indictment against Letitia James. The memo suggested that prosecutors had evidence countering the case against her.

2. Indictment of Letitia James: Letitia James was indicted by a federal grand jury for two counts: Bank Fraud and False Statements to a Financial Institution. Her arraignment took place in Norfolk, Virginia, where she pleaded not guilty. The trial is scheduled for January 26, 2026.

3. Yusi's Dismissal: Yusi was terminated by Interim U. S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan. The reasons cited included sending investigative files to her personal email, authoring the leaked memo, and her refusal to charge Letitia James.

4. Claims of Misconduct: Reports indicated that Yusi sent files containing personally identifiable information about Letitia James to her personal email account. Though sharing evidence is generally not illegal, it violates Department of Justice (DOJ) policy.

5. Defense from Yusi's Attorney: Yusi's attorney claims that she did not use her personal email for the investigation and has no record of any such email. Her attorney praised Yusi as a respected professional with nearly two decades of experience.

6. Media Coverage: The situation has been widely reported, with CNN and ABC News providing details on Yusi's actions and the implications of her leak. The leak was part of broader media coverage surrounding the indictment.

Elizabeth Yusi's firing raises significant questions about the conduct of prosecutors and the integrity of ongoing investigations. The case against Letitia James continues as she fights the charges in court, with the trial set for early 2026.
