        If it’s civil, isn’t it up to the plaintiff to drop the case? More likely criminal. He’s no hero.

        1) No indictments for the drumpf family, but Vance brought fraud charges against a family owned bank in Chinatown, Abacus Federal Savings.

        2) Abacus Federal Savings was the only bank to see indictments in criminal court related to the 2008 financial crisis (mortgage fraud).

        4) Vance maintains he was right to drop the case against Don Jr & Ivanka: "Accusations of unethical conduct have no connection to reality."

        5) Vance is similarly unapologetic about bringing charges against Abacus Bank even though it is roundly viewed as a miscarriage of justice.

        6) To see Vance's inequity in action, watch dir. Steve James' powerful film "Abacus: Small Enough to Jail" online at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/abacus/ …

        Can we get a compound interest return with a 22% rate? It's only fair.
