SALT LAKE CITY– – It looks like it may be more bad news for Brett Tolman.

Not only is he feeling the heat for those Native American artifact arrests in Southern Utah, but now ABC 4 News is being told that Tolman will be replaced as Utah’s U.S. Attorney.

ABC 4 is being told by multiple democratic and republican sources that:

1) Tolman will not be kept on as Utah’s U.S. Attorney.

2) A candidate to replace him has already been recommended to the White House.

That candidate is said to be David Schwendiman.

Schwendiman was an Assistant U.S. Attorney, a key aide to then U.S. Attorney Scott Matheson.
