New York Attorney General Faces Criminal Financial Fraud Indictment
A federal grand jury has charged the New York attorney general for bank fraud this past Thursday, per someone with knowledge of the case.
Lindsey Halligan handled the presentation of this case before the judicial panel this Thursday, according to the source.
Federal prosecutors rarely address such panels.
Halligan was appointed the position recently after the president grew impatient with the pace of investigations targeting political opponents.
This action is the president’s latest effort to leverage federal justice authorities to target political rivals.
It follows a fortnight after Halligan secured charges against James Comey.
Experienced attorneys wrote a document regarding that situation outlining why charges lacked merit.
Comey entered a not guilty plea on Wednesday.
More details soon
