Former NYPD inspector Paul Mauro joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to share his reaction to reports that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is considering indicting former President Trump on charges related to alleged hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in 2016.
“The theory of the case is really unique. What he’s done is he’s taking a misdemeanor, which is falsifying business records, and there is an aspect of that where if it’s done in service of a different crime, it’s been bumped to a felony. And they are conjuring the different crime as being the federal crime of a campaign finance violation. So it’s kind of mixing a state law and a federal law in order to get the state law to the felony level. In addition, both of them have statutes of limitations that you would presume would have run. I mean, the Blackwater law, they would have run. And so there must be some theory of the case. But there hasn’t been an indictment. It hasn’t come down. Or if there has been, we haven’t seen it. So I can’t speak to the specifics of it. I’m going to be interested in seeing this thing because it must read like Alice in Wonderland.”
