A federal prosecutor fired for not making guns and drugs a top priority. She was also Duke Cunningham's prosecutor. No big deal, she just hadn't prosecuted many cases during her tenure. Except that Lawyers called the firing "<a href="http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/metro/20070112-9999-1n12lam.html">virtually unprecedented</a> And FBI people claimed the firing would jeopardize cases. Then there was <a href="http://www.tpmmuckraker.com/archives/002340.php">Daniel Bogden</a>, a federal prosecutor in Nevada was also canned for "fostering low morale".
