New York Attorney General Letitia James wants the details of Lindsey Halligan’s interactions with the grand jury that indicted her — after a judge found “profound investigative missteps” in Halligan’s handling of the case against ex-FBI Director James Comey.
James wants prosecutors in the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia, helmed by ex-White House aide Halligan, to turn over certain records from the grand jury that indicted her for bank fraud charges tied to claims that she lied on documents for a mortgage on a second home in Virginia.
The request came after US Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatrick found in a Monday ruling that Halligan, President Trump’s hand-picked prosecutor in the key district, made “fundamental misstatements of the law” in front of a grand jury that indicted Comey for allegedly lying to Congress.
“As in the case of James Comey, this Court should review the entirety of the grand jury transcripts and the audio recording of proceedings in Alexandria to assess whether any similar misstatements of the law occurred that could compromise the integrity of the grand jury process in this case,” James’ lawyer, Andrew Bosse, wrote in papers later Monday.
James’ side also wants to review parts of the grand jury proceeding to verify that everything was done by the book.
“To ensure that an unbiased and properly charged grand jury was empaneled and proper procedures in the grand jury room were followed, AG James seeks disclosure of the aforementioned four narrow categories of grand jury material,” Bosse wrote.
James is slated to go on trial on Jan. 26 but she is seeking to get her case thrown out on multiple grounds, including the alleged unlawful appointment of Halligan, vindictive prosecution and for outrageous government conduct.

“vindictive prosecution and for outrageous government conduct”
Gee, sounds a lot like what she herself engaged in against Trump.
Revenge was her campaign platform😂😂😂😂
“Tish” is what her friends call her but you can call her (fill in the blank) “__________”.
Comey and now Tish; I hope this isn’t a conspiracy to fail by the DOJ.
The defense is throwing darts at the dartboard to see what sticks.
They’ve got nothing.
Might have?
Murdoch Lefty New reporters spouts
BS from any lefty source as facts and a screaming headline .
Why is this considered news .
Its glorified gossip .
That evil Murdoch has ruined the news .
This Black Bull Dyke is a scam artist they quote .
I hope this and the Comey situation drag on for a long time and bankrupts them.
The far-left primates are above the law. Comey, James and the insurrectionist Dipstick Court “jughead” in a black robe, Little Jimmy Nosebooger. He thinks he’s some kind of freaky Judiciary god who has been destined to help his daughter bring down the President of the United States. He could use a good boot in the keister.
The Post had to rearrange the letters.
@NewYorkStateAG
How about after she releases every bit of info about her indictments against Trump.....
“I hope this and the Comey situation drag on for a long time and bankrupts them.”
I’m hoping this clown show doesn’t keep costing taxpayers money. Trump needs to appoint more competent attorneys.
The Lefties and the Democrats don’t want to go to a place where Democrats break the law with impunity...
The Democraps are pushing to a place where Democraps can break the law with impunity, but Republicans and conservatives get prosecuted.
Example 1: the Trump prosecutions.
Aunt Jamesmima...
Barak Obama and 'Otto Penn' stacked the courts with DEI Liberals.
Comey and Big Tush will walk.
This smells. Badly.
I’ve stated from the outset that it smells a lot like it was botched with intent.
The grand jury “defect” in the Comey case is complete BS. After presenting evidence to the grand jury, US Attorney Halligan presented them with a proposed indictment, which contained several, separate criminal counts. The grand jury voted in favor of most of the charges but refused to approve one (or maybe two) of the charges. In response, Halligan deleted the count(s) that the grand jury voted against, and presented a copy of the indictment containing the counts that the grand jury voted in favor of, which was presented to the foreperson of the grand jury for signature. It is complete BS that the entire grand jury had to be handed the edited copy of the indictment for review before it was signed by their foreperson.
Statute of Limitations was a big part of Comey’s case. No such luck for Tish.
