Maurene Comey’s name keeps showing up in high-profile cases—what are the odds?

Some families pass down businesses. Others pass down political connections. The Comeys? They pass down control over some of the most sensitive legal cases in the country.

Maurene Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, has been with the Southern District of New York (SDNY) since 2015. Her cases aren’t just high-profile—they’re the ones with the biggest names, the darkest secrets, and the most powerful people involved. She was a lead prosecutor in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell, helped handle Jeffrey Epstein’s prosecution before his mysterious death, and now she’s attached to the sex trafficking and racketeering case against Sean “Diddy” Combs.

But here’s the problem: SDNY has thousands of Epstein’s files—binders, hard drives, evidence that could expose some of the most powerful people in the world. And yet, those files have never seen the light of day. Who exactly is being protected?

James Comey ran the FBI from 2013 to 2017, a period filled with its own controversies. Now, his daughter is in a position to shape the outcome of some of the most politically and financially sensitive criminal cases in recent history. It’s not just about law and order. It’s about who gets exposed—and who doesn’t.

Some prosecutors chase justice. Others control narratives. Maurene Comey’s track record raises the question: which one is she doing?

Maurene Comey, daughter of disgraced FBI Director James Comey, joined SDNY in 2015 and led the Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Sean "Diddy" Combs cases.

She prosecuted Epstein in 2019, yet his files exposing powerful allies stay sealed and hidden to this day.
