MARTINSBURG, WEST VIRGINIA — The streets of Martinsburg just got a little bit safer with the addition of a new prosecutor to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
United States Attorney William Ihlenfeld announced the addition of Daniel Salem to his Martinsburg office, citing the increasing criminal caseload in the Eastern Panhandle.
With nine years of experience under his belt, Salem has handled a heavy caseload of homicides, drug trafficking, and organized crime in Maryland, including leading wiretap investigations in collaboration with the Mid-Atlantic OCDETF Task Force.
‘Dan Salem is a tremendous addition to the Martinsburg team,’ said U.S. Attorney Ihlenfeld. ‘His experience in Maryland handling violent crime and drug trafficking cases allows him to step right in and assist with our busy criminal docket. I’ll continue to add Federal resources in the Eastern Panhandle to meet the threat and protect the community.’
Salem is an honors graduate of the Fordham University School of Law, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Martinsburg.
The addition of Salem is a significant step towards addressing the growing crime problem in the Eastern Panhandle, and Grimy Times will be closely monitoring the situation.
