The Justice Department reassigned the lead federal prosecutor overseeing its investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan in South Florida, two sources familiar with the matter said Friday.

Maria Medetis Long, a career prosecutor based in Miami who had been leading the case for months, is no longer handling the investigation, the sources confirmed to the Washington Examiner. A person familiar with the matter said only that Long would not be leading the case moving forward, adding that the circumstances surrounding the shift were not immediately known.
