Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr., who has spent more than two years investigating former U.S. president Donald Trump, has been coy about whether he'll seek Trump's indictment or leave the decision to the next district attorney, Alvin Bragg, a fellow Democrat who takes over Jan. 1.
Vance, who has spent more than two years investigating the former president, has been coy about whether he'll seek Trump's indictment or leave the decision to the next district attorney, Alvin Bragg, a fellow Democrat who takes over Jan. 1.
"I really can't talk about the Trump case, so I'm not going to talk about the Trump case," Vance said in a recent interview with The Associated Press. "But I think it's pretty clear that our investigation is active and ongoing."
Vance, 67, has continued to pursue Trump over his business practices even as he's packing up to leave the job he's held since 2010.
After charging the Trump Organization and one of its executives with tax fraud last June, Vance convened a new grand jury that could potentially bring a fresh indictment in what could be a legacy-cementing moment. No former president has ever been charged with a crime.
