Ex-Trump CFO Allen Weisselberg will be sentenced for perjury and faces a second stint in jail
Retired Trump Organization executive Allen Weisselberg received a five-month jail sentence for lying under oath during testimony in a lawsuit brought against Donald Trump by New York’s attorney general.
Allen Weisselberg, a former longtime executive in Donald Trump’s real estate empire, is set to be sentenced Wednesday for lying under oath in the ex-president’s New York civil fraud case.
Weisselberg, 76, is expected to be sentenced to five months in jail after pleading guilty last month to two counts of perjury. The ex-chief financial officer admitted lying when he testified he had little knowledge of how Trump’s Manhattan penthouse came to be valued on his financial statements at nearly three times its actual size.
It will be his second time behind bars. He served 100 days last year for dodging taxes on $1.7 million in company perks, including a rent-free Manhattan apartment and luxury cars.
Now, he’s again trading life as a Florida retiree for another stay at New York City’s notorious Rikers Island jail complex.
Ha ha ha, imagine going to jail for Donald Trump.
Which keeps happening, while Trump himself evades it every time.
And yet these idiots keep going to prison to protect him anyway.
Don't say he went to jail for Donald Trump.
Say that he went to jail for being a crook and a tax cheat.
There are plenty of folks like him who need to be afraid of the penalties for not paying taxes.
Don't let them think they are safe because they don't know Donnie.
He doesn’t have to imagine, he’s getting to do it a second time. lol
I mean, the first time was more or less going to jail for his own greed (dodging taxes on perks he benefitted from). They're all fucking criminals, regardless. I doubt Trump had to coax this guy at all to break the law.
But don't you dare to download a movie from some shady website! smh
Does this guy shout “IT’S WESSEL-BERG!!” every time someone calls him weasel-berg?
It should be why sselburg if we pronounced it properly I think.
