ST. LOUIS — U.S. Attorney Jeff Jensen will be stepping down from his post with the District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri on Dec. 30 after serving for three years.
His departure is likely one of many to come among federal prosecutors appointed by President Donald Trump, as President-elect Joe Biden prepares to take office. It also follows news that the Electoral College has confirmed Biden's win.
Trump appointed Jensen in 2017, and he most recently made national news after U.S. Attorney General William Barr appointed Jensen to review a case against retired general and former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
