Trump arrived at New York Attorney General Letitia James’ places of work Wednesday morning, however despatched out a press release greater than an hour later saying he declined to reply the questions below the rights and privileges afforded to each citizen below the United States Constitution. Anything he mentioned in the course of the deposition might have been used in opposition to him in a felony case. While James’ investigation is civil in nature, the Manhattan district lawyer is working a parallel felony probe.
