“Donald Trump did not know that Allen Weisselberg was cheating on his personal tax returns,” defence attorney Susan Necheles told the jury in her opening statement Monday in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan.
“The evidence will show that when Donald Trump was elected president at the end of 2016, these companies finally had to clean up” the tax practices, Hoffinger said. “There was concern about extra scrutiny of these companies because of Donald Trump’s election.” “During the years of the tax evasion scheme, the Trump Corporation actually paid out the expenses I described,” except for the tuition, she said. “That was paid by Donald Trump personally.”“Everybody wins here – Allen Weisselberg and these companies,” she said. “Of course, everybody but the tax authorities.”After openings, prosecutors called to the stand the trial’s first witness, Trump Organization Controller Jeffrey McConney.
Steinglass asked the judge for permission to treat McConney as a “hostile witness,” allowing prosecutors to cross-examine their own witness and try to impeach his credibility – a highly unusual move.
