Apparently they initially get "charged" in the districts where they reside and then their case is forwared to the D.C. District Court.

But note that many of the federal U.S. Attorneys were still TFG appointees and/or "actings" and it was only literally a couple weeks ago when a big log jam broke with a bunch (8) of Biden U.S. Attorney nominees getting confirmed - https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/nominations/confirmed/?keyword=confirmed

The U.S. has 93 U.S. Attorneys and so far Biden had nominated 37 and had at least 31 confirmed this calendar year. Any nominees not confirmed by the start of the new session in January will have to be renominated unfortunately.

The holdup was the GOP putting "blocks" on many of the nominees which kept them from being confirmed by "unanimous consent" and that gummed up the whole process.

Back in February, most previous admin's US attorneys were told to pack their bags -

The Justice Department disclosed in February that it was seeking the resignation of most U.S. attorneys appointed during President Donald Trump’s administration, though it did leave in place David Weiss, the top federal prosecutor in Delaware, where law enforcement officials have been conducting a criminal tax investigation involving Biden’s son, Hunter.
