Military lawyers to handle civilian crimes in DC

President Trump is assigning 20 military attorneys from the JAG Corps to work with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington, D.C., taking on civilian cases as part of efforts to bolster local law enforcement.

The move, confirmed by D.C. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, is unusual since JAG attorneys typically handle military matters.
