SShadows news for Donald Trump: his hopes of a triumphant reconquest of power were showered by an official letter received Tuesday, signed by New York State Attorney Letitia James. “We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into this organization is no longer just civilian in nature,” said prosecutor spokesperson Fabien Levy. We are now actively investigating the Trump Organization in criminal matters, along with Manhattan District Attorney, ”Cyrus Vance Jr.
The latter had opened in 2018 a civil procedure, relating to payments made in the name of Donald Trump to two of his alleged mistresses, including the call girl and porn actress Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, before the 2016 presidential election. Vance subsequently broadened the scope of investigation to include allegations of tax evasion, insurance fraud and bank fraud.
