Some media outlets have reported that this office has brought charges against Corey Lewandowski, campaign manager for Donald Trump. These reports are false. Our office has taken no action against Mr. Lewandowski. The matter was investigated and charged by the Jupiter Police Department, not this office. We will await the file from the Jupiter Police Department and make a decision on how to proceed in this matter before Mr. Lewandowski’s May 4th arraignment.

Law enforcement charges on a probable cause standard. The State has to proceed on a legally higher standard of proof, which is beyond a reasonable doubt as well as whether there is a reasonable likelihood of a conviction. At this point, our office has not received the case.


I find it doubtful that the police would file charges against someone at Lewandowski's position without checking with the prosecutor first. If the charges were to be dropped it would be a massive amount of egg on the face of the police.

The Chief of Police of Jupiter is a Clinton Democrat. He can extract his pound of flesh to impact the election and still fall back on the excuse the video evidence was sufficient to require the charge be made on behalf of the plaintiff, Michelle Fields. Another excuse he can use is to observe how Michelle Fields can use the criminal complaint to file a civil lawsuit after the criminal complaint is dismissed by the state prosecutor.
