The selection of a new chief and deputy to run the department's public integrity unit takes place amid an investigation of the unit's handling of the trial of Sen. Ted Stevens.

Career prosecutor Jack Smith has accepted the job of running the office; prosecutor Ray Hulser will be Smith's principal deputy.

Stevens served 40 years in the Senate but lost his re-election bid days after being convicted on corruption charges. The guilty verdict was later dismissed.
