Who is Charles Kushner?
Charles Kushner was born on May 16, 1954 to Joseph and Ray Kushner, who immigrated to the United States from the former Soviet Union in 1949.

And when CNN asked him: “Will your experience, if your father was incarcerated, be separated from that of the prosecutor who put him in prison?”
Christy replied, “If my father is guilty, I will, and Kushner Sr. has pleaded guilty and confessed to the crimes, so what should I do as a prosecutor? I mean, if a man hires a prostitute to seduce his son-in-law and He videotapes it, then sends the videotape to his sister to try to scare him over the testimony of … Before a grand jury, do I really need more justification? ”
After Charles Kushner was released from prison, he moved his business activities from New Jersey to New York City.

All he did was put the tape together and send it, Was that the right thing to do? ” What is to be done? In the end it was like this: You’re trying to make my life miserable … well, I’m doing the same. “
