A federal grand jury in Virginia has indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James on one count of bank fraud, after steady pressure from President Trump to prosecute one of his longtime political foes.
The indictment was confirmed by a source who was not authorized to discuss the charge publicly.
James, a Democrat who pledged to investigate Trump during her campaign, eventually sued Trump and his company for inflating the value of some of its properties, winning more than $450 million in the civil business fraud case.
