From UPI.com….
New York Attorney General Letitia James has expanded an investigation into former President Donald Trump’s business empire to include possible criminal offenses, her office said.
James’ office had already been investigating the Trump Organization, but only for possible civil offenses. Officials announced the expansion on Tuesday night.
The New York investigation began in 2019 and is now working with the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which was performing a wide-ranging inquiry into Trump’s dealings with banks and insurance companies over the value of his properties.
James’ office wrote to the Trump Organization recently to notify it that information collected as part of the civil case can now become a criminal investigation.
