Former President Donald Trump‘s acquittal on Saturday in his second impeachment trial doesn’t mean he’s legally out of the woods – he still could be indicted on criminal charges in numerous cases.
Currently, he is the target of at least one criminal investigation, led by Manhattan prosecutor Cyrus Vance, who has been fighting for months to obtain eight years of Trump’s tax returns.
Before the 2016 presidential election, two women claimed they had affairs with Trump, the accusations followed by Trump paying them hush money. Additionally, Vance is examining possible allegations of tax evasion and insurance and bank fraud.
In July, the Supreme Court ordered Trump’s accountants to hand over financial documents to Vance’s team, which caused Trump’s lawyers to challenge the scope of the requested documents.
