They are probably going to try the "plausible deniability" angle. If I were an investigator I'd be looking at the accountants too.


Where have you been? The letter firing Trump as a client was page 525000 of the papers the accounting firm has provided the NY AG. Of course they are being investigated and apparently they are cooperating. It’s ironic that Trump pal Giuliani pioneered the art of the RICO prosecution outside of the Mafia and it looks like it’s being done here. NY state has state laws that parallel federal RICO laws. In a continuing criminal enterprise, statutes of limitations are not as strict. If Trump did something ten years ago to further his criminal enterprise, pile it on. He should be terrified.


This idiot's Big mistake was running for POTUS- enter the ring of non-stop scrutiny of every aspect of your financial past- not just your personal one.

And to think, if he'd just been satisfied with being a reality TV Freak show he'd have been fine

Truth is, as bad as Trump is, there are hundreds of " businessmen, lawyers and accountants JUST LIKE HIM operating in every city in this country every day


Sure, the others need to be investigated and prosecuted, too. But first we need resolution on Trump's financial and business misdeeds.

Seriously?

High-powered Republicans and their donors. Because they have a vested interest in the American public not knowing how dirty they play.

+1 I’m convinced that this is how Eric Schneiderman got exposed. I’m not sorry he’s gone because he was a POS, and it didn’t end up affecting the state investigation because Barbara Underwood and now Tish James have been great, but I think the intent was “bury the AG and the investigation will go away.”


The more women we elect to high offices the better the country would be, JMO. It almost seems from the numbers (numbers could be misleading due to the small #s of women being in the power of influence and hence vetted with much stricter rules) women political leaders are more scrupulous.


Women leaders exercise a lot more self-discipline than men. Women leaders also are not thinking with their (non-existent) penis for 50% of the time.

Proving intent to commit fraud: should not have to rely on Cohen who will be discredited as a witness.
1. Inflating prices of assets and properties for selling and devaluing for taxes speakers for itself;
2. First president to doggedly refuse to reveal tax statements.
If he had nothing to hide, he would have acted like every other president;
3. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse for someone who openly bragged about evading taxes making him smarter;
4. Violating presidential records act by shredding lots of incriminating information. Again, if he had nothing to hide, he would not have violated this legal agreement;
5. Payments by Russian entities resulting in treasonous siding with Putin over US intelligence agencies.


“When reports emerged indicating that Bragg was reluctant to move forward with the Trump case, some legal experts noted that convicting him of tax fraud would not be easy. In the civil probe, AG James alleged that Trump may have used “fraudulent or misleading” asset valuations on six properties to obtain tax benefits, and his former accounting firm no longer stands by them. Some of the alleged discrepancies appear startling: The former president inflated the size of his Trump Tower triplex by three times and valued rent-stabilized units more than 66-fold, the attorney general has said.

Establishing criminal intent, however, could prove trickier: Weisselberg is known to be staunchly loyal to the former president, and he has fought to dismiss the case rather than cooperate with the government. Trump famously does not send text messages or emails, leaving little in the way of a paper trail in a case that would largely hinge upon criminal intent. That would leave Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen as the key witness against his former boss, and a seasoned defense attorney would likely bring up Cohen’s conviction for lying under oath during cross examination, among others.

Perhaps nodding to such critics, Bragg said that prosecutors cannot only bring cases that are “slam dunks.”

“To the contrary, every case must be brought for the right reason – namely that justice demands it,” he wrote.””
