García Calls for Interim U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois Andrew Boutros to Resign

CHICAGO — Congressman Jesús “Chuy” García (IL-04), Member of the House Judiciary Committee, issued the following statement regarding Interim U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois Andrew Boutros:

“Andrew Boutros has disgraced the office he leads. Between the baseless Broadview Six case, the ridiculous charges against Marimar Martinez, and the credible allegations of dysfunction and misconduct, he has made it clear that he will put politics above the interests of Chicagoans and other residents of the Northern District. He has no credibility and must resign, and there must be a non-partisan, transparent process to nominate the next U.S. Attorney for the Northern District.”
