Attorney Mark Pomerantz defended his decision to publish a book about the investigation looking to prosecute former President Donald Trump for various types of business fraud.
Pomerantz served as a lead prosecutor for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and had been investigating whether Trump illegally lied about his asset valuations before stepping down last year in protest, claiming that Bragg was too tepid against Trump. Bragg's office recently warned Pomerantz's book could compromise prosecution efforts.
"I bring hard cases when they are ready. Last year when I took office, I did an exhaustive review of a matter put before me and came to the same conclusion that multiple senior prosecutors in my office independently came to," Bragg said. In the time since Pomerantz's resignation, the Manhattan District Attorney's office reportedly shifted focus back to the alleged hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign, which had been the original focus of the inquiry.
Investigators are reportedly examining whether it amounted to a campaign finance violation or whether Trump's team falsified documents. Trump has slammed Bragg's office for its inquiry of him, chalking it up to a politically motivated onslaught against him.
