Cir.) -- ruling that agency properly relied on Exemption 6 to withhold proposed job termination letter issued to the Assistant United States Attorney who prosecuted plaintiff's criminal case, noting that the letter revealed "only alleged unprofessionalism of a sort in which any junior attorney might engage, not allegations of prosecutorial misconduct or other abuse of a federal prosecutor's powers."
