Jack Smith, the U.S. special counsel named to investigate Republican former President Donald Trump, has a reputation for winning tough cases against war criminals, mobsters and crooked police officers.
Behind the scenes, however, Smith's former colleagues say he is just as tenacious in his pursuit to get criminal charges dropped for the innocent as he is to win convictions against the guilty.
When Smith isn't busy competing as a triathlete in Ironman races, they said, he is working as a dogged investigator who is open-minded and not afraid to pursue the truth.
"If the case is prosecutable, he will do it," said Mark Lesko, an attorney at Greenberg Traurig LLP who worked with Smith when both were prosecutors at the U.S. Attorney's Office in New York City's Brooklyn. "He is fearless."
Smith recently returned to the United States after working from The Hague in the Netherlands since November while recovering from knee surgery following a biking accident, a person familiar with the matter, speaking on condition of anonymity, said on Wednesday.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in November to take over two investigations involving Trump, who is running for President in 2024.
The first probe involves Trump's handling of highly sensitive classified documents he retained at his Florida resort after leaving the White House in January 2021.
The second investigation is looking at efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election's results, including a plot to submit phony slates of electors to block Congress from certifying Democrat Joe Biden's victory.
Grand juries in Washington have been hearing testimony in recent months for both investigations from many former top Trump administration officials.
SEARCH FOR INNOCENCE AND GUILT
Smith, a Harvard Law School grad who is not registered with any political party, started as a prosecutor in 1994 at the Manhattan District Attorney's Office under Robert Morgenthau, who was best known for prosecuting mob bosses.
Smith's friends credit Morgenthau with instilling in him the skills that made him the prosecutor he is today.
"There was just a real emphasis, from Morgenthau on down, on not just going after convictions," recalled Todd Harrison, an attorney at McDermott Will & Emery who worked with Smith in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and later in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Brooklyn.
"We were praised if we investigated something and demonstrated that the target of the investigation was innocent."
Once, he and Smith "spent the whole night making phone calls" after learning that a jailed suspect in one of their cases was innocent. The suspect was released the next day.
In 1999, Smith started working at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Brooklyn.
He won a conviction against New York City Police Officer Justin Volpe, a white policeman who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for assaulting Abner Louima, a jailed Black inmate, with a broomstick.
Smith also won a capital murder conviction against Ronell Wilson, a drug gang leader who murdered two undercover New York City police officers, though a federal appeals court vacated the death penalty verdict.
In 2008, Smith left to supervise war crime prosecutions at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. He returned to the Justice Department in 2010 to head its Public Integrity Section until 2015.
Most recently, he worked as chief prosecutor for the special court in The Hague investigating war crimes in Kosovo, and won a conviction last month against Salih Mustafa, a former Kosovo Liberation Army commander.
Moe Fodeman, an attorney at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati who worked as a prosecutor with Smith, said his former colleague is known for being methodical and thinking outside the box.
"He is famous for to-do lists," said Fodeman, adding that the lists would be filled "with ideas that, of course, you should do, but no one thinks of."
Smith is also known for being expeditious, and Fodeman predicted the special counsel's investigations involving Trump will probably move swiftly.
"He's not going to be dillydallying," Fodeman said. "He's going to get the job done."

i'm never knowingly going to reblog a post that includes the phrase 'touch grass,' and that's not because i don't think it can be psychologically beneficial to get in some outdoor time if possible—i went for a walk earlier! it was great!—or to take a break from conversations that are getting you wound up, but because i think that particular wording generally reveals two things:
first, that the writer is speaking not from a place of genuine concern and sympathy, but from judgmental impatience à la 'get therapy,' which—i too have felt judgmental and impatient in my time, god knows! but when i feel that way i try to go unpack those feelings in private with a thoughtful friend, instead of pretending they constitute a source of wisdom or a helpful sort of energy to direct at people, you know? and i'm definitely not particularly interested in boosting a ventpost from someone else—who pretty clearly hasn't bothered to take the breather they're urging on others, if they're making little digs like that—as if it were actually sincere, carefully-reasoned advice.
and second, that the writer's argument embraces some seriously sloppy assumptions, which pretty immediately undermines my trust in the rest of their analysis—i mean, there's absolutely no guarantee someone's local scene will be any less parochial, just because it's playing out irl! there's also not actually a clean divide between 'people who spend time in the Real World' and 'people who spend time on the internet, which is for porn losers,' as demonstrated by a number of phenomena including, again, the aforementioned grass-recommenders' own presence right here on tumblr…
anyway. obviously we all have our own particular lines we draw around particular rhetoric that bugs us! these are just some reasons why that particular phrasing bugs me.

What ur top 5 gintama ship ?!
Oh man, oh man, top 5? If it's a Gintoki ship I'm basically in regardless of pairing unless its [redacted] lolol but here's a list of faves,
Mob!Character/Gin
2) Saka/Gin
3) Zura/Gin
4) Hiji/Gin
5) Utsu/Gin
I ranked them in order of which fic I'd open first if it had this ship tagged, vs how easy and enjoyable I'd find it to write.
I did debate about #5 and really if it came down to UtsuGin vs OT3s (GinHijiZura, SakaGinZura). I'd probably read/write the UtsuGin first just because it's simpler and there's a very specific dynamic within the OT3s (or even an OT4 if we wanna throw everyone in there) that I enjoy which is a little complicated.
But also... I don't really sort my fics via ship and usually I struggle to PICK a ship when I'm writing (if I even remember to make it shipped and then usually I end up picking Hijikata for simplicity reasons) because it's less about the pairing and more about the trope for me. Like if Gintoki isn't in that / pairing or isnt the first character listed then I'm not opening the fic. But sometimes I don't even read the tags I just open it if Gintoki's involved (typical, have gotten into some trouble doing this, InfiniteInMystery does not advise not reading tags before opening things in any fandom).
Listen. I'm desperate. I don't care. I will eat it if its Gintoki-centric okay, everything else is just flavours!!! It's like chips, I like all chip flavours, love a few more than is healthy, and there's that one that's just pretty damn mid and I need to be in the mood for it asfdjkhgjksdgf
Thanks for the ask! I just love Gintoki, he can be loved and hated by everyone and I'll be happy!
