On Thursday, Nassau County police responded to a bomb threat at the residence of Judge Arthur Engoron, who is overseeing the civil fraud trial of former President Donald Trump. This information was disclosed by a source with direct knowledge of the situation, as reported by NBC News. The incident coincides with the day scheduled for the beginning of closing arguments in Trump’s trial.
Authorities, including a bomb squad, were dispatched to Judge Engoron’s home for investigation on Thursday morning. At the time of the report, it was not confirmed whether Judge Engoron was present at his residence during the threat.
This incident follows a recent tense email exchange on Wednesday between Judge Engoron and Chris Kise, Trump’s attorney, regarding the former president’s request to speak during the trial’s closing arguments. Judge Engoron ultimately rejected this request.
The situation remains under investigation, and details regarding the origin or credibility of the bomb threat have not been disclosed at this time.
