NEW YORK — 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.
"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.
Bragg's insistence that the criminal probe remains active comes despite the absence of overt developments that were apparent during earlier stages of the investigation, when subpoenas were routinely issued and witnesses were regularly appearing before a grand jury.
