Robert Frazer, a veteran prosecutor with over 20 years in the New Jersey U.S. attorney’s office, has been appointed interim U.S. attorney, ending nearly a year of legal disputes and leadership turmoil following controversial interim appointments by former President Trump. The prolonged conflict involved court rulings that invalidated previous appointments and criticized the DOJ’s handling, which disrupted ongoing prosecutions and eroded trust in the office. Frazer’s appointment, supported by both political parties, aims to restore stability and refocus the office on its core mission of combating crime and protecting citizens’ rights.
