TL;DR Summary

New York Attorney General Letitia James, after winning a $454 million judgment against Donald Trump for fraud, is now pursuing claims that Trump withheld evidence from her fraud probe. She is seeking additional fines under NY law if evidence subpoenaed was lost or destroyed. The focus is on three internal Trump Organization email chains from 2016 that were not turned over to her office, which were used as evidence in sending former Trump CFO Allen Weisselberg to jail for perjury. The AG's office is pushing for a forensic review to determine if the emails were in the possession of the Trump Organization and why they were never turned over, potentially seeking sanctions for spoliation.
