Joshua Steinglass, from the Manhattan district attorney's office, told jurors in his closing argument that the scheme helped Trump's company keep salaries down, shift tax deductions to Trump entities such as his Mar-a-Lago club, reduce payroll taxes, and keep executives happy and loyal.
Steinglass told jurors that Trump executives other than Weisselberg were involved, saying the company's chief operating officer and a former general counsel received Christmas bonuses as if they were independent contractors.Steinglass is expected to finish his closing argument on Friday, with the jury beginning deliberations on Monday.Defense lawyers had told jurors on Thursday that Weisselberg's intent was to benefit himself and not the company.
Weisselberg, 75, also testified that the company paid for a car lease for his wife, prepared a bogus wage statement so she could claim social security benefits, and paid for his son's apartment.
Guess that's what he gets paid to do or why bother not benefiting from Trump tax fraud eh.
