US Attorney Patrick Meehan to Resign

U.S. Attorney Patrick Meehan this morning told his staff that he intends to step down as the top federal prosecutor for the eastern part of Pennsylvania and practice law.

Meehan, a former aide to U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter (R., Pa.) and former Delaware County District Attorney, will hold a news conference this afternoon to formally announce his plans.
