Former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference at the Hilton Anatole on Aug. 06 in Dallas, Texas.A jury in Manhattan has found former President Donald Trump's company guilty of a long-running criminal tax fraud scheme that lasted into his presidency.
"This was a case about lying and cheating, false documents to the aid of evading taxes for the benefit of individuals and the corporation," Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg said, speaking with reporters after the verdict was delivered. "Every witness repeatedly testified that President Trump and the Trump family knew nothing about Allen Weisselberg's actions," Susan Necheles said in a statement., who became the star witness for the prosecution in the case.On Halloween, prosecutors made their opening arguments in the trial of the Trump Corporation and the Trump Payroll Corporation , arguing that the case was about"greed and cheating.
In his summation, assistant district attorney Joshua Steinglass pointed a rhetorical finger directly at Trump, saying Trump sanctioned tax fraud. The defense vigorously objected, and the objection was sustained by the judge. During his testimony, which laid out the details of his criminal tax fraud, Weisselberg acknowledged that he still receives a $640,000 salary from the Trump Organization – though he has been placed on leave – and of hopes to receive an end-of year bonus.
James reacted to Tuesday's verdict with a statement."We can have no tolerance for individuals or organizations that violate our laws to line their pockets," she said.
