New York Attorney General Confronts Criminal Bank Fraud Indictment
A federal grand jury brought charges against the New York attorney general over allegations of bank fraud this past Thursday, according to an informed source.
Lindsey Halligan directly submitted this case to the grand jury this Thursday, according to the source.
US attorneys rarely present to such panels.
Halligan was installed in the role recently following Donald Trump became frustrated with the pace in ongoing probes against his rivals.
This step represents the newest attempt to utilize federal justice authorities to penalize opponents.
This occurs two weeks following Halligan secured charges against James Comey.
Experienced attorneys drafted a memorandum regarding that situation outlining the reasons charges were not justified.
Comey entered a not guilty plea on Wednesday.
