Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who has been under fire since the Justice Department forced out a number of U.S. attorneys last month, including San Diego’s Carol Lam, will be in town today to announce action in what appears to be a major drug case.
The press conference is scheduled for 1:25 p.m. and will feature Lam’s interim replacement, Karen Hewitt, and the DEA’s acting agent in charge, Alan Poleszak.
