Fox News Contributor and Professor of Law at George Washington University Jonathan Turley He told the host of Fox News Laura Ingraham The irony of James being accused of forging the record is “fully crushed.”
“This is the person who indicted Trump other than tearing the label from the mattress, and among the charges brought in New York, the civil case was a criminal case, and made false or misleading statements to financial institutions,” Turley said. “As for James, there are very few questions here if she applies the Leticia James standard she created. This seems pretty easy.”
He explained that the Trump administration is saying this isn’t her main residence.

James has also been accused of stating that her father was husband to file as a married couple, Tarley added.
“The Supreme Court said at the beginning of March that it wanted to know not only misleading statements, but false statements based on sections like 10-14, in a case called Thompson,” Turley said. “These are misleading statements. They are either your main residence or not. You are married to your father, or he is your father.”
DOJ and James did not respond to Fox News on the issue.
The matter has been indicted in the past, but as Turley said from Ingraham’s angle, “the document itself is very awful.”

Now let’s see that no one is beyond the law, as Ag James stated himself.”
The New York Post reported that the property James purchased with her father had documented that in 1983 and 2000, the parties were listed as “husband and wife.”
