Holding The Line Inside The Nations Preeminent Us Attorneys Office And Its Battle With The Trump Justice Department Geoffrey Berman by Geoffrey Berman 9780593300299, 0593300297 instant download after payment.

The gripping and explosive
memoir of serving as US Attorney for the Southern District of New York,
in the face of the Justice Department’s attempts to protect Trump’s
friends and punish his enemies.
Ascending to the leadership
role of US Attorney for the Southern District, which includes Manhattan
and several counties to the north, is a capstone to any legal career: it
entails guiding a team of the best lawyers in America in selecting and
winning cases that often have global import. Geoffrey Berman was honored
to be tapped for the job by Donald Trump in 2018. The manner in which
Trump had dispatched his predecessor Preet Bharara was troubling, but
the institution was fabled for its independence. Surely he could manage.
 
So began one of the most tumultuous two-and-a-half-year stretches in
the over two-hundred-thirty year history of the office. Almost
immediately, Berman found himself pushing back against the Trump Justice
Department’s blatant efforts to bring weak cases against political foes
and squash worthy cases that threatened to tarnish allies and Trump
himself. When Bill Barr became attorney general, Berman hoped and
believed things would get better, but instead they got much worse. The
heart ofHolding the Lineis his never-before-told account of
the lengths Barr went to in corrupting the independence of the office,
and the lengths Berman had to go in preserving it. Finally, Trump and
Barr, fed up with Berman’s principles, summarily fired him, though he
refused to go quietly and prevented Barr from installing someone who
might be more compliant. Berman’s determined defense of the values of
prosecutorial independence, without fear or favor, made him a hero to
everyone who shares those values.
 
Holding the Linealso
relates the remarkable casework of the Southern District in Berman’s
time there, including taking down notorious sex traffickers Jeffrey
Epstein and Lawrence Ray, Big Pharma executives, and vicious criminal
