United States Department of Justice (DOJ)
Description
The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) serves as the federal legal authority that evaluates, investigates, and prosecutes complex national-security and corruption cases. In the current material the DOJ appears through a Special Prosecutor, William Thornton, who leads a prosecutorial review of $47 million diverted into arms trafficking, human smuggling, and linked assassinations. The office coordinates with FBI agents, local officials, and witness-protection units, applies evidentiary assessment and prosecutorial discretion, and weighs political and operational risks when deciding charges and protective measures for cooperating witnesses.
