WICHITA — Barry Grissom announced Monday that he’s stepping down as U.S. attorney for Kansas to return to private practice in Kansas City.
Grissom, 62, declined to name the law firm that he will join, citing Justice Department policy, and downplayed speculation that he would immediately seek public office.
“I don’t want to say never,” Grissom said. “If there came a time I decided to test the waters, it would certainly be for the Senate seat that Sen. (Pat) Roberts holds now.”
