Bogden, U.S. Attorney, Nevada, announced his resignation in January 2007.
During his five-year reign as the highest-ranking federal prosecutor in Nevada, Bogden has scored some notable successes, a Las Vegas newspaper reported. His office boosted firearms prosecutions, secured the convictions of dozens of violent gang members and oversaw the cases against four former Clark County commissioners convicted of taking bribes.
Even defense lawyers speak highly of his straightforward style and fair play.
Bogden was recommended by Senator John Ensign, R-Nev., nominated by President Bush and approved by the U.S. Senate in 2001.
