It has been a year since SCOTUS ruled in favor of allowing Manhattan prosecutors access to Donald Trump's tax returns. It is not unusual for financial probes to take years. Trump's lawyers have predicted that investigators will come up empty-handed. One year ago today, the US Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald Trump cannot keep his tax returns secret from a Manhattan grand jury. Prosecutors have yet to bring charges against the former president despite crunching the numbers from eight years of his taxes, something his lawyers say shows the weakness of the investigation. Insider was told by former Manhattan prosecutors that neither Trump's foes nor fans should read into how long things are taking. Diana Florence, a former prosecutor, said it takes an incredible amount of time. The Manhattan District Attorney and the New York Attorney General are conducting parallel criminal investigations into Trump. The Trump Organization and its CFO, Allen Weisselberg, have been the subject of limited tax charges so far. According to court documents, at least ten of Trump's properties are being investigated. Five million pages of Trump Organization documents, including the tax returns and supporting documents, have been gathered by investigators. Former Manhattan prosecutors say sifting through that amount of data takes a lot of time. Florence, who handled complex enterprise corruption cases as a chief of the district attorney's construction fraud task force, said that all documents must be electronically transferred into a case database. It is not computers that are looking at the documents. At the end of the day, it is human beings. It is an art and a science. All of this takes time. John Moscow, who worked at the Manhattan District Attorney's office for 30 years, said prosecutors must verify each statement of fact in the return. Moscow, who is now senior counsel with Lewis Baach Kaufmann Middlemiss, said that it takes time to prove that the return is false. There have been no charges filed against Weisselberg or Trump. Based on the public record so far, one possibility is that the AG and the DA may be readying a much more comprehensive case. Lawyers for Trump and The Trump Organization have denied any wrongdoing. The eyes of the world will be upon the Manhattan district attorney and attorney general if they don't file any new charges. Even if it is superficial, any mistake will be ridiculed and exposed.
