McHenry was appointed to her function on the State Division final month. A Division official declined to touch upon McHenry’s exit, saying it was an inside personnel matter.
ABC Information was not instantly in a position to contact McHenry.
McHenry previously labored as a reporter for ESPN. In 2015, she was suspended by the community for one week after a video displaying her berating a clerk at a towing firm went viral.
Her departure from the State Division was first reported by Web page Six.
