The dramatic ordeal unfolded shortly after 4 p.m. on the fourth floor of the New York State Supreme Court Building, sending shockwaves through the corridors of justice. With the clang of alarm bells piercing the air, the city’s finest firefighters sprang into action to quell the inferno. According to court spokesperson Al Baker, the culprit was apprehended after igniting the papers and then callously extinguishing them with a fire extinguisher. The details surrounding this heinous act remain shrouded in mystery, but rest assured, dear readers, that the authorities are leaving no stone unturned in their investigation.
What’s even more staggering is the timing of this outrageous incident. It occurred mere hours after the conclusion of the testimonies in Trump’s civil fraud trial – a trial that has been the talk of the town for nearly three months. As the building reverberated with the clamor of evacuation, even the esteemed Judge Arthur Engoron, who has been presiding over the trial, found himself compelled to flee the scene. The absence of the distinguished former President Trump from the building on this fateful day did little to dampen the gravity of the situation.
In a stroke of good fortune, no injuries were reported as a result of this appalling act. However, the shadow of chaos and lawlessness looms large over the hallowed halls of justice in New York City. Stay tuned as The Washington Times continues to bring you all the latest updates on this brazen act of defiance against the rule of law and the sanctity of Trump’s civil business fraud trial.
