The investigation, first reported on by the Wall Street Journal, centers on whether Cook allegedly committed fraud by listing more than one property as a primary residence when she applied for mortgages.

A grand jury in Atlanta is looking into Cook and “it’s likely an indictment could come,” a source familiar with the matter told The Post.

Cook owns properties in Michigan and Georgia, as well as Massachusetts.
