Manhattan DA insists Trump criminal probe remains active

R&I – TxPAT ****

The investigation continues despite the recent resignations of two prosecutors

Former President Trump, members of his family, and the real estate business that bears his name remain under criminal investigation in Manhattan despite the recent resignations of the two experienced prosecutors leading the case, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg insisted Thursday in his first public statement about the case since the resignations in February.Bragg said the statement was meant to respond to repeated questions about the highest profile case he inherited from his predecessor nearly 100 days ago.

Those questions followed the departure of prosecutors Carey Dunne and Mark Pomerantz, the latter of whom opined in his resignation letter that Trump “is guilty of numerous felony violations” but that Bragg had “reached the decision not to go forward” with the criminal case.

“The team working on this investigation is comprised of dedicated, experienced career prosecutors,” Bragg’s statement said. “They are going through documents, interviewing witnesses, and exploring evidence not previously explored. In the long and proud tradition of white-collar prosecutions at the Manhattan D.A.’s Office, we are investigating thoroughly and following the facts without fear or favor.”

Trump has denied all wrongdoing.
