New York Attorney General Confronts Criminal Bank Fraud Indictment
A federal grand jury has indicted Letitia James over allegations of financial misconduct this past Thursday, as stated by an informed source.
The US attorney for the eastern district of Virginia personally presented the case to the grand jury on Thursday, the person said.
Federal prosecutors do not typically present to a grand jury.
Halligan was installed the position recently following the president expressed dissatisfaction regarding the progress of investigations against his rivals.
This action marks a recent strategy to leverage the Department of Justice to penalize political rivals.
It follows a fortnight after Halligan obtained indictments targeting the former FBI director.
Career prosecutors prepared a memo regarding that situation detailing why indictments lacked merit.
Comey pleaded not guilty recently.
Additional information forthcoming
