WASHINGTON – Thomas J. Eicher, Deputy U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, has been recognized for his outstanding service and dedication to public safety. In a ceremony held at the Robert F. Kennedy Building in Washington, D.C., Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein honored Eicher, along with 161 other U.S. Attorneys, for their tireless efforts in combating crime and improving communities across the country.
In his remarks, Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein praised the honorees, saying, ‘Today’s honorees earned the esteem of their colleagues. But most importantly, they earned the gratitude of our fellow citizens — the people whose communities you made safer, whose lives you improved, and whose trust you rewarded.’
Deputy U.S. Attorney Eicher, a 30-year veteran of the U.S. Attorney’s office, was recognized for his leadership, effectiveness, personal integrity, and dedication to public service. He has served as Chief of the Criminal Division, helping to establish New Jersey’s first federal reentry and ‘pre-trial’ courts. Eicher has also played a key role in the development of innovative data-driven violent crime strategies and has led important initiatives, including the Public Safety Partnership and Violent Enterprise Source Targeting.
Eicher’s contributions to the U.S. Attorney’s office have been widely recognized. U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito praised Eicher, saying, ‘For three decades, the past 15 years of which have been spent in our office, Tom Eicher has represented the U.S. Attorney community with professionalism and distinction.’
As Deputy U.S. Attorney, Eicher oversees the important work of the Camden and Trenton offices, while continuing to be a trusted and reliable part of the leadership team. His dedication to public service has earned him the prestigious Executive Achievement Award, a testament to his commitment to justice and public safety.
