Alvin Bragg: “These are felony crimes in New York state. No matter who you are, we cannot and will not normalize serious criminal…”

I`ve spent a career following the facts wherever they go. At the attorney general`s office, I led the team that held Trump and his children accountable for the misconduct with the Trump Foundation.

Celebrating this conduct is abhorrent to me. It's deeply disturbing and what I would say to members of the public, people who, as you described are celebrating this and maybe contemplating other action that we will be vigilant and we will…

I could not see a world in which I would indict Trump and call Mr. Cohen as a prosecution witness.

These are felony crimes in New York State, no matter who you are. We cannot and will not normalize serious criminal conduct.
