President Trump on Friday called New York Attorney General Letitia James "a corrupt person," following her appointment as a special prosecutor in the Cornell rape case. "Letitia James is a corrupt person," he told reporters before departing for a rally in Alabama. "I feel badly for whoever she's looking at because they won’t get a fair shake." New York Gov. Kathy Hochul appointed Ms. James to oversee the investigation after criticizing officials’ handling of allegations made by a student who said she was raped at a Cornell fraternity house in 2024. President Trump and the New York attorney general have a history of legal battles including various state lawsuits against him starting in his first term, a suit against him on fraud and the Justice Department's indictment of Ms. James. #letitiajames #cornell #trump #hochul #cspan
