Fired Jeffrey Epstein prosecutor Comey: �Fear is the tool of a tyrant�

The Justice Department abruptly fired New York federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, whose criminal cases included that of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who died in 2019.

In a note to her former colleagues, Comey told them not to be intimidated by the threat of being arbitrarily fired for political reasons. �Fear is the tool of a tyrant,� she wrote.

President Donald Trump has long considered Comey�s father, former FBI Director James Comey, an enemy.
