In a stunning move, The New York Attorney General informed the Trump organization on Tuesday that their case has gone beyond a civil case and now is a criminal investigation.
Up to this point, they had been looking to bring tax record fraud charges against the Trump Organization.
“We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the organization is no longer purely civil in nature. We are now actively investigating the Trump Organization in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan DA,” James’ spokesman Fabien Levy told CNN. “We have no additional comment.”
This means that on top of civil (money) penalities there could be criminal charges as well.
Is anyone surprised?
