Actually the news is more recent.Current news is they are going after the CFO first which could be as soon as next month.Plan is obviously to try to get him to rat on Trump to make the Trump case stronger.
He’s been Trump’s tight-lipped accountant for decades. As New York prosecutors close in, will he keep quiet? Allen Weisselberg, center, stands behind Donald Trump and Donald Trump Jr. in the lobby of Trump Tower on Jan. 11, 2017. (Evan Vucci / Associated Press) By Chris Megerian, Del Quentin Wilber June 23, 2021 WASHINGTON — When Donald Trump met in Central Park with contestants from the second season of “The Apprentice,” there was someone new standing to his left, the sun gleaming off his bald head and eyes squinting behind rimless glasses. This, Trump said, was Allen Weisselberg, his chief financial officer, and he was filling in for George Ross, another executive who had appeared on the show. “If you think George is tough, wait until you see Allen,” Trump boasted, as Weisselberg stood silently holding a leather briefcase. Nearly two decades later, Trump’s fate might depend on how quiet Weisselberg remains after spending most of his adult life as the former president’s tight-lipped, behind-the-scenes accountant.......
Trump cant pardon him.He would be going to a NY State Pen like Rikers or Attica,which are rat and roach infested dilapidated hell holes.Gotta ask himself if thats where he wants to die,and would Trump do it for him.
New York prosecutors give Trump Organization Monday deadline for final arguments https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ny...y-deadline-final-arguments-report-2021-06-27/ New York prosecutors have told lawyers for former U.S. President Donald Trump they must respond by Monday with any last arguments as to why criminal charges should not be filed against his family business, the Washington Post reported on Sunday. The Post, citing two people familiar with the matter, said the deadline was another strong signal that Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance and New York Attorney General Letitia James are considering criminal charges against the company as an entity. On Friday, the New York Times reported that Vance could announce charges against the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, as soon as next week.read more A lawyer for the company did not immediately respond to requests for comment. A spokesman for Vance declined to confirm the reports or to comment on them. Any criminal charges would be the first in Vance's probe into Trump and his business dealings. Legal experts have said an indictment against the Trump Organization could bankrupt the company by undermining its relationships with banks and other business partners. Vance's office has said it was investigating "possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct" at the Trump Organization, including tax and insurance fraud and falsification of business records. It is possible that no charges will be brought. Vance's probe nevertheless could complicate any return to politics by Trump, who has lost some of his ability to communicate publicly after being permanently banned from Twitter(TWTR.N)and suspended for two years by Facebook(FB.O). Court filings and records subpoenaed in the investigation show that Weisselberg and his son Barry have received corporate perks and gifts worth tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in their years associated with the Trump Organization. If they failed to account properly for that money on tax returns and other financial filings, they could be in legal jeopardy, legal experts have said. James' office has been investigating whether the Trump Organization inflated the values of some properties to obtain better terms on loans, and lowered their values to obtain property tax breaks.
Trump Derangement Syndrome in full display. As a private citizen now, President Donald Trump should file lawsuits against the city of New York and other cities whose Attorney General Democrats are harassing him with multiple lawsuits for damages. Let those cities pay up. It is criminal what they are doing. One day, these scalawags will wind up in jail where they belong.
Exactly! Trump was apparently so squeaky clean that the DA after 2 years had to make up some bullshit potential charges that has no one has ever been indicted on.
Define recently. Furthermore, why are they even talking about the fringe benefits thing. It just makes them look like complete idiots and a total joke.
