WASHINGTON — D.C. is home to the largest United States Attorney's Office in the country, and it has been busy.
In five years under Ron Machen’s leadership, the office has prosecuted some of the most high-profile cases in the country. Among them were Walter and Kendall Myers, convicted of a 30-year conspiracy to provide secrets to Cuba, and Stewart Nozette, a scientist serving time for trying to sell classified information to a person he believed to be an Israeli intelligence officer.
