Maurene Comey, a federal prosecutor and the daughter of former FBI director James Comey, told her former colleagues in an email that her sudden firing should “fuel the fire” of their work fighting abuses of power.

Maurene Comey told colleagues in a farewell email that she was fired without a reason but urged them not to succumb to the fear she said her termination may cause.

Comey, who prosecuted Jeffrey Epstein, was fired from the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office amid a public uproar over the attorney general's decision not to release additional files in the case.
