He was appointed by U.S. Trustee Tracy Hope Davis working under the authority of U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Martin Glenn. On February 5, 2013, Freeh was named Chair of the law firm Pepper Hamilton LLP. He resigned the chairmanship earlier than slated, in October 2014. In August 2018, Freeh hired attorney Rudy Giuliani to lobby the Romanian government calling for amnesty for Freeh's clients in a corruption probe. An editorial by Louis Freeh critical of the 9/11 Commission appeared in the November 17, 2005, edition of the "Wall Street Journal". In 2005, Freeh (with Howard Means) published a book about his career in the FBI entitled "My FBI: Bringing Down the Mafia, Investigating Bill Clinton, and Fighting the War on Terror". It is highly critical of both President Clinton and former counter-terrorism advisor Richard A. Clarke. On October 19, 2005, Freeh made an appearance on "The Daily Show" to promote the book. A "New York Times" review called it "A strangely shallow offering by a man who is anything but...". Freeh and his wife, Marilyn, who at the time was employed as a clerk at the FBI headquarters, have six sons. Freeh is a devout Roman Catholic. Contrary to rumors, he is not a member of the Opus Dei prelature. According to "The Bureau and the Mole", a book by David A. Vise, one of Freeh's sons was enrolled at The Heights School in Potomac, Maryland, which Vise describes as "an Opus Dei academy". Several of his sons graduated from Archmere Academy, a Catholic school in Claymont, Delaware. One of his sons attended Georgetown University, a Catholic university in Washington, D.C.  Freeh acquired Italian citizenship on October 23, 2009. Shortly after noon on August 25, 2014, Freeh was headed south on Vermont 12, in his 2010 GMC Yukon, when he drove off the east side of the road. The vehicle struck a mailbox at 2762 Vermont 12, Barnard, Vermont, and a row of shrubs, before stopping against a tree, police said. Freeh told police he fell asleep at the wheel. The Wilmington, Delaware, resident was flown from Barnard to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New Hampshire, under armed guard.
