Main Justice covers insider news about the U.S. Department of Justice, including the 94 U.S. Attorney offices around the United States. Our subscription sister site, Just Anti-Corruption, provides indepth news and analysis for legal professionals about the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and international anti-corruption enforcement.
We are an independent news organization and not part of the U.S. government. Our journalists are media professionals accredited by the Standing Committee of Correspondents, which issues congressional press passes, and the U.S. Department of Justice. Our free Main Justice site focuses on the inner workings of the DOJ, particularly the Attorney General, U.S. Attorney news, as well as white-collar crime, corruption and compliance.
Our digital publication Main Justice borrows its name from the informal moniker for Justice Department headquarters in Washington. Just as the White House is synonymous with the president, Main Justice is short-hand for the Attorney General and his top prosecutors, lawyers and policy-makers.
In 2001, the Main Justice building at 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW was formally named the Robert F. Kennedy Department of Justice Building. Robert Kennedy served as Attorney General from 1961 to 1964.
