An assistant to New York Attorney General Letitia James may face a misdemeanor criminal charge for vandalism.
Assistant Attorney General Stacey Hamilton may be facing a charge of third-degree criminal tampering after allegedly ortedly accused the office of Albany County District Attorney David Soares of “unfair treatment,” although an unassociated special prosecutor was assigned to the case.
The Context
The office of James has been thrown into the national spotlight in recent years for investigating the alleged wrongdoings of former President Donald Trump, culminating in a recently successful business fraud lawsuit against the ex-president that ended in a judgment of over $464 million.
Hamilton, who has worked for multiple state government agencies in the Empire State, denied to The Times Union that she had been charged with any crime, purportedly telling the paper’s reporter over the phone that they “really need to actually do some investigating.”
What We Know
Court documents cited by The Times Union allege that Hamilton doused a neighbor’s car with “unknown liquids” on November 16. The neighbor later filed a vandalism complaint with police, saying that the liquid had damaged the paint on his vehicle.
Hamilton’s lawyer Kevin Gagan told the paper that the girlfriend of the car’s owner had assaulted the assistant attorney general on the same night of the alleged vandalism incident. The girlfriend is purportedly facing a misdemeanor charge of assault.Letitia James’ Assistant May Face Charge of Criminal Tampering (msn.com)
