Authorities in Nassau County responded to a bomb threat at the home of the judge overseeing Donald J. Trump’s civil fraud trial on Thursday.
A spokesperson for the Nassau County Police Department acknowledged that there was an investigation at the house of the judge, Arthur F. Engoron, who in several hours is set to hear closing arguments in Mr. Trump’s case. According to two people with knowledge of the situation, the bomb squad visited the house and there was a threat involving a device. It was unclear if the threat would cause the proceedings to drag on.
The threat came the morning after Mr. Trump again attacked Justice Engoron on Truth Social, his social media site, saying that the judge and the New York attorney general, who brought the fraud case, were trying to “screw me.” And it came just days after the police in Washington were called to the home of the federal judge overseeing Mr. Trump’s election interference case.
Mr. Trump originally planned to speak in his own defense at closing arguments Thursday. But Justice Engoron said he would have to abide by rules that apply to lawyers giving closing arguments and refrain from delivering a “campaign speech.”
