A group of more than 175 former federal prosecutors released an open letter denouncing Donald Trump’s incendiary attacks on Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who’s investigating the former president for hush-money payments to a porn star.
The group, which included dozens of Bragg’s former colleagues from the Manhattan US Attorney’s office, condemned Trump’s statements on social media calling Bragg an “animal” and predicting “death and destruction” if Trump is indicted. The group said the statements were an effort to intimidate Bragg.
