Former Biden US Attorney Found Dead At 43

Jessica Aber, a 43-year-old former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia appointed by President Biden, was found dead at her home Saturday in Alexandria, Virginia.

The Alexandria Police Department stated that officers responded to Aber’s home after receiving a report about an “unresponsive woman.”

While her death remains unexplained, the department is investigating the “cause and manner” of her death. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is also conducting a review of Aber’s death.

During her tenure from 2021 to 2025, Aber secured a conviction of Siemens Energy for corporate espionage. Siemens was found guilty of stealing trade secrets from competitors General Electric and Mitsubishi, resulting in a $104 million fine.

The Biden-appointed attorney achieved a major win when ex-CIA analyst Asif Rahman, 34, pleaded guilty to leaking classified documents about Israel’s planned strike on Iran. Rahman shared the details on Telegram, causing Israel to delay its October attack on Tehran. (Read more from “Former Biden US Attorney Found Dead At 43” HERE)
