Bethel’s District Attorney has been fired by the state of Alaska. While working in the office Sunday, June Stein received a letter from a Deputy Attorney General of her quote “impending release.”
Stein says she plans to continue working until March 9th, that’s the date the state set as her last day. She’s served as Bethel’s district attorney since 2009. A spokesperson for the Department of Law was not able to comment Monday afternoon.
