Letitia James, the New York Attorney General, is facing allegations of housing a fugitive in her Virginia home amid a fraud case.
According to reports, James has allowed her grandniece, Nakia Thompson, and Thompson's three kids to live at the residence since 2020.
Thompson is officially listed as an "absconder" who is being sought by authorities in North Carolina for failing to finish her probation.
Ms Thompson was sentenced to probation for misdemeanor convictions for assault and battery and trespassing, and has willfully avoided probation supervision. An absconder is considered a fugitive. - Keith Acree, Communications Director for the North Carolina Department of Corrections
