NEW YORK, NY (LOOTPRESS) – New York Attorney General Letitia James, a Democrat known for her legal battles with President Donald Trump, was indicted on Thursday by a federal grand jury in Virginia on one count of bank fraud.
The charge follows a probe into mortgage fraud allegations against James, initiated by Attorney General Pam Bondi, a Trump appointee.
The indictment comes after President Trump publicly urged his Justice Department to pursue charges against James, who previously won a civil fraud case against him before his return to the presidency.
While the full details of the indictment remain undisclosed, the bank fraud charge is believed to be connected to the mortgage fraud allegations.
James, a prominent figure in New York politics, has not yet commented on the charges.
