From the New York Post: New York Attorney General Letitia James was hit with two federal criminal referrals Wednesday alleging she may have committed homeowners insurance fraud.
Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte alleged in the missives, obtained by The Post, that James may have falsified information in filings with Illinois-based Allstate Insurance Company and Florida-based Universal Property Insurance.
The referrals were sent to US Attorney for Northern District of Illinois Andrew Boutros and US Attorney for Southern District of Florida Jason Reding Quinones.
They come four months after a federal judge in Virginia dismissed a criminal indictment against James accusing the Empire State’s top prosecutor of mortgage fraud.
The report notes that Pulte’s criminal referrals refer to documents originally made public on social media by lawyer Mike Davis, founder of the conservative judicial advocacy group Article III Project.
Exhibit 4 in Halligan’s filing is Letitia James’s Affidavit of Occupancy, where she swore under oath that she would be using the Norfolk, Virginia property she bought as a second home.

In another insurance application, James claimed that the Norfolk house was occupied by a single adult, with no children.

Lindsey Halligan’s prosecution of Letitia James is a righteous, garden-variety mortgage fraud prosecution.
As her filing shows, prosecutions are routinely brought in the Eastern District of Virginia for fraud over similar amounts of cash.
