South Florida U.S. Attorney Reding Quiñones abruptly resigns. What's next?
Jason Reding Quiñones resigned Friday as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida, ending a tenure marked by turmoil within the Miami-based federal prosecutor’s office and controversy over its involvement in an investigation targeting perceived enemies of President Donald Trump. Reding Quiñones offered no explanation for his abrupt resignation, which came just three days after midterm elections in which Republicans lost control of both the House and Senate. He did not respond to text messages seeking comment. His resignation comes amid growing concern within Miami’s legal community over the politics surrounding the office, the departure of experienced prosecutors and the erosion of its traditional independence from political influence. Dan Gelber, a former federal prosecutor and Miami Beach mayor whose law firm represents former CIA Director John Brennan in an investigation involving the office, offered a stark assessment. “It’s been terrible to watch what’s happened to this office,” Gelber said. “Their morale is underwater. Their institutional expertise has been depleted.” Gelber, who spent about a decade as a federal prosecutor in Miami, recalled an office that handled some of the nation’s most consequential drug trafficking, healthcare fraud and foreign corruption cases. He expressed hope that new leadership could restore its

Rust, peeling paint on a dough flattener at a Miami bakery without valid permit
People washing their hands without soap as fruit flies hovered in the kitchen area were among the many problems a state inspector recently found at a Miami wholesale bakery. Another problem at Victoria Bakery, which works out of a commercial area off Northwest 27th Avenue in Allapattah: no valid food permit. The Oct. 26 inspection by Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services inspector Edilma Leidecker said “the food entity does not have a registration with the FDA.” “The food entity is operating without a valid food permit. As stated by the manager, they have been processing at this location for the past three months,” the report said. In the inspection’s comments section , Leidecker noted the food permit application had been submitted. Other issues: “During the inspection, live fruit flies were observed in the kitchen area where unused, soiled equipment, including a stove, grills, and ovens, were stored.” There was “a heavy accumulation of old food, peeling paint, and rust on the dough flattener machine used to flatten the dough in the production area.” Leidecker hit the dough flattener with a Stop Use Order for “unsanitary equipment.” Also, there were “an open, damaged, torn and wet bag of yeast
