on the occasion of the White House visit in conjunction with a 2009 U.S. Attorneys conference:
"I appointed you, but you don't serve me. You serve the American people. And I expect you to act with independence and integrity."

She and Preet agree that it serves everyone well to heed these words today.

I'm very glad the outstanding teams in the Northern District of Virginia and the Southern District of New York have done their jobs so well in these two cases.
