A federal grand jury no-billed in response to the mortgage fraud accusations against New York Attorney General Letitia James.
I think that enough of the general public has come to understand the nature of the Trump Department of Justice, and they are no longer giving the prosecution the benefit of the doubt.
The Justice Department failed Thursday to secure a new indictment against New York Attorney General Letitia James after a judge dismissed the previous mortgage fraud prosecution encouraged by President Donald Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.
Prosecutors went back to a grand jury in Virginia after a judge's ruling halting the prosecution of James and another longtime Trump foe, former FBI Director James Comey, on the grounds that the U.S. attorney who presented the cases was illegally appointed. But grand jurors rejected prosecutors' request to bring charges.
It's the latest setback for the Justice Department in its bid to prosecute the frequent political target of the Republican president.
Prosecutors are expected to try again for an indictment, according to one person familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the case.
This is a good thing now, and it will be a good thing in the future,because it will force prosecutors to work to get azn indictment.
