Richard Weber to Lead Manhattan Major Economic Crimes Bureau

By Securities Docket on February 19, 2010, 12:06 pm

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance has created a new Major Economic Crimes Bureau that combines the Frauds Bureau and several lawyers from a bureau known as Investigation Division Central.

Reuters reports that Senior U.S. Justice Department official Richard Weber has been appointed by Vance to lead the new bureau. He will also be deputy chief of the district attorney’s investigation division. Weber had previously served as chief of the Justice Department’s asset forfeiture and money laundering section.
