Prosecutor: Giuliani associate's brother may be tied to campaign finance conspiracy case
NEW YORK The brother of an associate of President Donald Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani is under examination as part of a closely watched campaign finance conspiracy case, a federal prosecutor said Friday.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Roos told a judge that Steven Fruman, the younger sibling of Giuliani business client Igor Fruman, could have been involved in the alleged scheme to buy influence by funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to U.S. politicians and campaign committees.
Roos said the younger sibling lied about his bank accounts and his businesses when questioned by government paralegals who were examining his suitability to serve as a co-signer on Igor Fruman's $1 million bond package.
Saying that Steven Fruman "could be involved" in some of the actions alleged in the criminal case, Roos said, "it seems he was trying to conceal something." The prosecutor did not elaborate.
