Whoa: Who Letitia James Has Living in Alleged Mortgage Fraud House Just Made Her Situation Much Worse

With New York Attorney General Letitia James facing federal mortgage fraud charges, a new revelation has added another layer to the story. 

As RedState reported, James, who bragged about weaponizing the justice system against now-President Donald Trump, is accused of lying about a house she bought in Virginia in order to secure a lower interest rate. When she filled out the forms, she attested to it being a second residence, which carries with it owner occupancy requirements and stipulations on how many years must pass before it can be rented. Instead, she immediately rented it out, a move that would have changed the terms of the loan, leading to a higher interest rate, had she not allegedly falsified the application.

So who is living in it? If you only read The New York Times, you'd think it's just a "grandniece who needed tranquillity," but according to a new report, that grandniece is actually a fugitive from justice, wanted in the State of North Carolina on some rather serious charges. 

Is the attorney general of New York, who is currently facing federal criminal charges, harboring a fugitive in the house she allegedly obtained through mortgage fraud? Because it sure seems like that's what's happening here, and the fact that this is a family member and not some random person makes it so much worse. 

Are we to believe that James didn't know about her grandniece's criminal history or that she's wanted in North Carolina? That's also something that would have come up on a background check, which James presumably didn't do since she allegedly violated the terms of her mortgage to rent the house to a relative. That's what the Times describes as the attorney general trying to provide "tranquility." You can't make this stuff up. Real life is too absurd.

You simply can't fathom how corrupt so many politicians are, and James has never hidden the ball. She came to power pledging to use her office to take down Trump in what was an obvious attempt to pump herself up to run for governor one day. She's made a mockery of the justice system in the process, proclaiming no one is above the law while clearly believing she is above the law. 

Shameless doesn't begin to cover it. I'm still highly skeptical that a Norfolk, VA, jury will ever convict her, given the area's political leanings, but the attempt should obviously still be made. It's also worth remembering that the house in Virginia is just one of several alleged instances where James is accused of mortgage fraud over the decades. She also allegedly misrepresented the number of units in a rental property to garner a lower interest rate, and she allegedly claimed her father as her husband on a mortgage.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that maybe James is just a crook?
