Steve Bannon not out of trouble despite Trump pardon --
New York AG and Manhattan DA are hot on his trail
teamed up to probe allegations that Bannon defrauded Trump supporters with his work on the "We Build the Wall" crowdfunding campaign.
"Investigators employed by the state attorney general were deputized
to work as prosecutors with the team led by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr.,
whose investigation of Bannon began shortly after his pardon was announced in January,"
pardon ... cannot protect Bannon from facing criminal charges from state law enforcement agencies.
last summer charged that
Bannon and several other leaders of the "We Build The Wall" online fundraising campaign had defrauded "hundreds of thousands" of donors by using donations for their own personal expenses.
alleged that Bannon funneled "over $1 million from We Build the Wall" into a nonprofit organization that he personally controlled.
According to SDNY, Bannon then used at least some of that money "to cover hundreds of thousands of dollars" in his own personal expenses.
