Deutsche Bank gave Donald Trump financial records to New York prosecutors - report
Manhattan district attorney’s office seeking eight years of the president’s personal and corporate tax records
Aug 6, 2020
New York prosecutors investigating Donald Trump’s finances previously issued a subpoena to Deutsche Bank, one of the foremost lenders to the president’s business, as part of their inquiry – and the bank complied,
according to the New York Times.
The office of the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus Vance, is seeking eight years of the president’s personal and corporate tax records, but has disclosed little about what prompted the prosecutor and his team to request the records beyond payoffs to women to silence them about alleged affairs with Trump in the past.
Lawyers for Vance
told a judge in New York on Monday that he was justified in demanding the records from Trump, citing public reports of “extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization”.
A report emerged Wednesday that Vance’s office subpoenaed the German lender last year in what the New York Times
said was a sign that their criminal investigation into Trump’s business practices is more wide-ranging than previously known.
