We have to be patient. I don't want to just see indictments. I want convictions. And Pat Fitzgerald seems to be a decisive, methodical, prosecutor with a specialty in... TERRORISM.
A short bio:
Fitzgerald attended parochial schools, including Regis High School, where he was awarded a full scholarship. He earned his B.A. from Amherst College in economics and mathematics in 1982. He worked his way through college as a janitor and a doorman during the summers and held a variety of on-campus jobs during the academic year. He received several academic scholarships at Amherst and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and received a John Woodruff Simpson Fellowship in Law at graduation. In 1985, he graduated from Harvard Law School, where he taught economics and interned in the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts.

In 1988, Fitzgerald became an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York. He began his prosecutorial career by handling significant drug trafficking cases, including United States v. Munoz (nine defendants) and prosecuting major heroin smuggling rings, United States v. Rivera and United States v. Yui Keung Tsoi.
In 1993, Fitzgerald and another lawyer prosecuted John Gambino, a capo of the Gambino Crime Family and three other members of the Gambino Crime Family crew for murder, racketeering, gambling, narcotics trafficking, loan-sharking, and bid-rigging. The defendants were ultimately convicted of a variety of racketeering charges, including murder. For his work on the case, the Justice Department honored Fitzgerald with its Director’s Award for Superior Performance.
From January through June 1994, Fitzgerald was Chief of the Narcotics Unit of the Office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. In June of 1994, he became counsel in the prosecution of Omar Abdel Rahman and 11 other defendants, who were accused of a seditious conspiracy involving the bombing of the World Trade Center and a plot to bomb the United Nations, the FBI Building in New York, the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels, and to assassinate President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt. The nine-month trial resulted in convictions and led to Fitzgerald and his co-counsel receiving the Attorney General’s Award for Exceptional Service, the Justice Department’s highest award. The United States Court of Appeals noted that Fitzgerald and his co-counsel "conducted themselves in the best traditions of the high standards of the Office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York."
