WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has appointed U.S. attorneys in New York and Pennsylvania to coordinate federal investigations into Ukraine-related matters, including new information collected by President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani.
In a letter sent Tuesday to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler and obtained by The Associated Press, the department said that Richard Donoghue, U.S. Attorney for Eastern District of New York, has been assigned to coordinate any investigations and other Ukraine related-matters. Assistant Attorney General Stephen Boyd wrote that Scott Brady, the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania, will assist in the “receipt, processing and preliminary analysis of new information provided by the public that may be relevant to matters relating to Ukraine.”
Attorney General William Barr said last week that the department is taking in information that Giuliani is gathering in Ukraine about the president’s Democratic rival Joe Biden and his son. Barr’s comments came a day after Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and a close ally of Trump, said Barr told him the department had “created a process that Rudy could give information and they would see if it’s verified.”
