JUST IN: Investigators In Trump Fraud Probe Reportedly Resign After D.A. Expresses Doubts About Case
JUST IN: Investigators In Trump Fraud Probe Reportedly Resign After D.A. Expresses Doubts About Case. They resigned, reportedly over differences with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Two Manhattan prosecutors Carey R. Dunne and Mark F. Pomerantz, who is working on the probe into Trump Organization business dealings for signs of fraud, abruptly resigned yesterday, after incoming District Attorney Alvin Bragg told them he had doubts about the trump case, according to reports first published by the New York Times.
The prosecution and investigation, which runs parallel to a tax fraud probe into the Trump Organization by NY AG Letitia James, is looking at whether the Trump family business misrepresented the asset value and allowed certain executives to scuttle taxes by compensating them with off-the-books perks.
Closed sources of this investigation said it had ground to a month-long halt in the middle of prosecutors' presentation of evidence to a grand jury. Though the Manhattan District AG Office has filed 15 felony charges against the Trump Organization and Weisselberg, it has yet to file any charges against Trump personally.
In the month of January 2022, NY AG James alleged the Trump Organization used “fraud or misleading” valuations to obtain loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions, and that the company systematically inflated its statements to suggest that Trump’s net worth was higher than it otherwise would have seemed. AG Letitia James added that Donald Trump Jr. (elder son of Donald Trump) and Ivanka Trump (daughter of Donald) were closely involved in some of the allegedly fraudulent transactions, and suggested they could be compelled to testify in the investigation.
The two top investigators stepping down raising serious questions over the future of the case Trump has referred to as a 'witch hunt'. Former Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Bromwich said it means the probe is 'dead'.
The investigation was heating up late last year when the former District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. convened the grand jury. Witnesses have reportedly included a Mazars USA accountant with knowledge of Trump's financial disclosures and a former executive from Deutsche Bank, one of the ex-president's biggest lenders before it cut ties with him.
On January 19, 2022, the New York Attorney General Letitia James’ from his official Twitter Account tweeted and informed that:
We are taking legal action to force Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., and Ivanka Trump to comply with our investigation into the Trump Organization’s financial dealings.
No one in this country can pick and choose if and how the law applies to them says AG James.
We have uncovered significant evidence indicating that the Trump Organization used fraudulent and misleading asset valuations on multiple properties to obtain economic benefits, including loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions for years say AG Letitia James.
Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., and Ivanka Trump have all been closely involved in the transactions in question, so we won’t tolerate their attempts to evade testifying in this investigation says, Attorney James.
We will not be deterred in our efforts to continue this investigation, uncover the facts, and pursue justice, no matter how many roadblocks Mr. Trump and his family throw in our way.
No one is above the law.
After this former President Trump unleashed on James and Bragg accusing them of 'frightening' Mazars into cutting him out.
'My long-term accounting firm didn’t leave me for any other reason than they were harassed, abused, and frightened by DA’s and AG’s that for years have been threatening them with indictment and ruination,' Trump said through his Save America PAC.
'They were “broken” by these Radical Left racist prosecutors, and couldn’t take it anymore.'
