- The Manhattan DA on Saturday sent an office-wide email warning of intimidation and threats to staff.
- Trump called for protests as the office investigates his alleged hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg privately warned his staff of possible threats and intimidation in an email sent Saturday as a grand jury appears poised to indict former President Donald Trump on criminal charges related to his 2016 campaign.
While Trump posted Saturday in all-caps on Truth Social $4," Bragg's email sent the same day told staff "we do not tolerate attempts to intimidate our office or threaten the rule of law in New York," $4 first reported.
"Our law enforcement partners will ensure that any specific or credible threats against the office will be fully investigated and that the proper safeguards are in place so all 1,600 of us have a secure work environment," $4 reported Bragg wrote, though he did not mention the former president by name.
Representatives for the Manhattan DA's office and Trump did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
Trump is $4 following a criminal inquiry the New York prosecutors have been conducting related to a $4 made two weeks prior to the 2016 presidential election that resulted in criminal charges against $4.
Cohen $4 related to the payment and has been cooperating with the Manhattan DA's probe.
