“The United States Attorney’s Office is so fortunate to be able to welcome Lauren Zurier to its ranks. Lauren’s more than two-decades-long experience prosecuting many of Rhode Island’s most significant and complex criminal appeals – which followed her graduation from Harvard College and Law School, a federal clerkship, and work as an associate in a large Rhode Island law firm – will make her an invaluable and most welcome addition to the United States Attorney’s Office. And Lauren’s devotion to criminal justice, under five Attorneys General, is practically legendary to the Rhode Island criminal bench and bar,” said Weisman.
