Allister Adel, the controversial Maricopa County attorney, abruptly announced Monday her resignation from office.
Her departure, which takes effect Friday, comes amid reports that the official had been struggling with alcohol abuse and a lack of attendance at county meetings. Her actions prompted investigations by the State Bar of Arizona and the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.
Adel responded to the news outlet's investigation in February by saying she was still working on her “journey.”
