“This is a scandalous misuse of the criminal justice system,” Mr Dershowitz stated.
“It will create a terrible precedent in which other prosecutors will go after people of the opposing party.
“Remember this is a prosecutor who ran on the platform of getting Trump – essentially to help defeat Trump when he runs against the head of the Democratic Party.”
Mr Dershowitz stated that is an “extreme example of the politicisation of the criminal justice system and it’s very, very dangerous for America.”
