Puerto Rico Office of the Special Independent Prosecutor's Panel

Autonomous agency of the executive branch of the government of Puerto Rico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Puerto Rico Office of the Special Independent Prosecutor's Panel (Spanish: Oficina del Panel sobre el Fiscal Especial Independiente) is an autonomous agency of the executive branch of the government of Puerto Rico that appoints Special Independent Prosecutors —Spanish: Fiscal Especial Independiente (FEI)— to investigate and prosecute government officials who engage in criminal conduct.[1] FEIs are equivalent to special prosecutors while the agency is synonymous to the United States Department of Justice Office of Special Counsel but at the state government level rather than federal.
