Looked her up last year on LexisNexis and PACER. Don’t recall seeing her on an FOI case in about 15 years.

She joined the DOJ about 1993. Assigned to some FOI cases. Quit for a while to have children and then came back in the National Institutes of Health, where, perhaps not coincidentally, Rod Rosenstein’s sister is some kind of bigwig.

The article misspells her name, too.

It should be Lisa Barsoomian.

I did more research, and it appears that Roger Stone was involved in this story last year, so, there might be a hint of conspiracy theory to it.

I verified that Barsoomian did work as a DOJ attorney in a Juducial Watch FOIA lawsuit against the FBI in 2002.

Just a name reference, though, no detail about her level of involvement.

Apparently Stone and others have claimed that DOJ records about her role in FOIA cases have been destroyed.

Anyway, those two cases were 15 and 20 years ago, so, even with full records, it might be really hard to prove conflict of interest.

I did not make one thing clear in my post.

Apparently, Barsoomian worked for Bill Clinton's defense team during the Impeachment.

It's not clear if she worked as a DOJ lawyer, or as private lawyer, and I couldn't verify either one.

Anyway, that would certainly be important if she worked for Bill Clinton as a private lawyer.
