Robert Corrente (DOJ)
Corrente, a Bush holdover, was confirmed by the Senate in July 2004. He was noted for the establishment of an anti-gang educational program and the successful prosecutions of several health care and white-collar fraud cases.
“It has been a great privilege to have served the country, the Department of Justice, and especially the people of Rhode Island,” Corrente said in the news release.
We previously reported that Democratic Rhode Island Sens. Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse recommended federal prosecutor Peter Neronha to be the next Rhode Island U.S. Attorney. He has been an Assistant U.S. Attorney for Rhode Island since 2002.
