James released a statement late Wednesday, Aug. 5 saying she’ll speak from her office in lower Manhattan at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 6.
No further details were provided, but the statement comes just after it was reported Deutsche Bank turned over President Donald Trump’s financial records following the issuing of a subpoena by the Manhattan District Attorney, according to The New York Times.
Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr. stated in a court filing that the investigation is wider in scope than the hush money payments Trump’s campaign paid to women who allegedly had affairs with him.
Vance said his office was investigating possible bank and insurance fraud and “public reports of possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization.”
