A Seneca Falls man is going to be part of the Trump administration.
President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed the nomination of Emil Bove III as the principal deputy attorney general.
Bove’s appointment, alongside that of Todd Blanche as deputy attorney general, marks a significant shift in the Department of Justice’s leadership pending Senate confirmation.
Bove, the 1999 salutatorian at Mynderse Academy, has had a decorated legal career spanning nearly two decades. After earning a bachelor’s degree in public policy and economics from SUNY Albany in 2003 and a law degree from Georgetown University Law Center in 2008, Bove rose through the ranks of the legal profession, most notably serving as an assistant U.S. attorney in Manhattan for the Southern District of New York.
Bove recently was a lead attorney for Donald Trump during his NYC trial.
