Democrat Prosecutor Drops Probe Into Trump Golf Course
A Democrat prosecutor in New York has dropped a two-year tax investigation into a golf course owned by former President Donald Trump.
Westchester County District Attorney Miriam Rocah announced that no charges would be filed against the former president or his company after she investigated allegations that Trump’s organization had provided dishonest property evaluations to save on taxes.
“AFTER GOING THROUGH A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION FOR TWO YEARS BY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICE IN WESTCHESTER COUNTY, NEW YORK, IT WAS JUST ANNOUNCED THAT THE CASE HAS BEEN DROPPED, AND NO CHARGES WILL BE FILED,” the former president said in a statement on Truth Social. “THIS WAS THE HONORABLE THING TO DO IN THAT I DID NOTHING WRONG, BUT WHERE AND WHEN DO I GET MY REPUTATION BACK? WHEN WILL THE OTHER FAKE CASES AGAINST ME BE DROPPED? ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!”
The probe, which began in 2021, focused on taxes related to the Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff Manor, located in Westchester County.
“The Westchester County District Attorney’s Office conducted an investigation regarding certain properties owned by Donald J. Trump and/or the Trump Organization located in Westchester County, New York,” Rocah’s office said in a statement.”Our investigation is now closed. We approached this investigation as we do all of our investigations, objectively, and independent of politics, party affiliation and personal or political beliefs.”
Rocah told CBS News on Thursday that it was important that Americans have faith in the rule of law.
