Drew H. Wrigley took the oath office as North Dakota’s 19th Presidentially appointed United States Attorney, on April 17, 2019. President Donald J. Trump nominated Mr. Wrigley in 2018, and the United State Senate unanimously confirmed the nomination on April 11, 2019. Wrigley’s appointment extends his previous 15 years of law enforcement experience, including over 5 years as an assistant district attorney in Philadelphia, and 8 years as North Dakota’s 17th presidentially appointed United States Attorney (2001-2009). During his previous service, Wrigley served on the Attorney General’s Advisory Committee of three successive Attorney Generals, the Hons. John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales, and Michael Mukasey. Mr. Wrigley is approaching his new term with the very same energy and commitment with which he previously served as US Attorney, during which time he led his office’s successful efforts to combat violent crime, large-scale narcotics trafficking, illegal immigration, financial fraud and Internet crimes against children, and all civil defense actions. In addition to prosecuting many hundreds of serious felony cases as an assistant district attorney in Philadelphia, Mr. Wrigley personally tried several noteworthy cases during his first tenure as United States Attorney, including: North Dakota’s first federal Internet luring case; a conspiracy and homicide on one of North Dakota’s Indian reservations; narcotics conspiracy and trafficking cases;
