Trump's Justice Department launches criminal probe into Letitia James, multiple sources say

More than a year after New York Attorney General Letitia James won a half-billion dollar civil fraud case against President Trump, the Justice Department under Mr. Trump has launched a criminal fraud probe targeting James, multiple sources familiar with the investigation told CBS News.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is leading the investigation. 

U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of New York John A. Sarcone III told the Albany Times-Union that the investigation was "being handled at this time by main [Department of] Justice and the Albany FBI field office."
