Ex-Trump Org. CFO sentenced to 5 months in jail after testifying falsely about size of Trump triplex apartment

Former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg, who admitted to testifying falsely in Donald Trump’s civil fraud case, was sentenced on Wednesday to five months in jail on perjury charges.

Weisselberg was charged with five counts of perjury, but under a deal with prosecutors, he agreed to plead guilty to two felony counts relating to testimony he gave during a 2020 deposition with the attorney general’s office. Weisselberg also admitted to testifying falsely at the civil fraud trial last fall but that is not among the charges to which he pleaded guilty.

As part of the plea deal, prosecutors agreed to recommend Weisselberg serve a sentence of five months in jail.

Weisselberg testified falsely about his knowledge of the size of Trump’s apartment triplex and how the value of that apartment was inflated on Trump’s financial statements for years based on the incorrect square footage.

Per his recent agreement with prosecutors, Weisselberg did not plead guilty to perjury at Trump’s civil fraud trial over the triplex, and the parties agreed he wouldn’t be sentenced for that conduct, which could be considered a violation of his parole in connection to his 2022 guilty plea.

After the sentence was handed down Wednesday, Weisselberg was handcuffed and escorted out of the courtroom.

It is the second guilty plea by Weisselberg, who in 2022 pleaded guilty to 15 counts of tax fraud and testified in the trial of two Trump Org. entities. He served roughly four months in prison.

Weisselberg had been in plea talks with Manhattan prosecutors for several weeks relating to his testimony taken during the New York attorney general’s civil investigation into the former president in 2020 and when he testified last year, several people familiar with the investigation previously told CNN.

As part of the plea talks, Weisselberg was not expected to turn on Trump and will not testify against him at the New York criminal hush money case, the people said.

Trump is indicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment and reimbursement before the 2016 presidential election. Weisselberg was central to the financial dealings but neither prosecutors nor Trump’s attorneys said they plan to call him as a witness. Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

In the hush money case, Weisselberg helped arrange the reimbursement to Michael Cohen, the ex-president’s former lawyer, who advanced $130,000 to Stormy Daniels to stop her from going public about an affair with Trump. Trump has denied the affair.

The payment initially drew scrutiny of federal prosecutors who gave Weisselberg limited immunity for his testimony before a federal grand jury. Prosecutors moved forward with charges against Cohen.

The first prison sentence he got or this one?

I’m speaking of the piece of paper you sign when you have a bond from a surety. They’re going to get their pound of flesh. I have a bonding capacity, and once a quarter I have my agent come through requesting updated financials. My bank only does it once a year for my LOC. It also, at least in my mind, proves he has the money. No surety would put up the bond without knowing they would for sure get their money.

I am interested to see how Trump's Bond plays out. I read they had 10 days to clear up the discrepancies. This is a generous offer from the court since the matter has already been given a couple of extensions. Maybe it is just another creative tactic to delay the inevitable.

Of course they are being generous, they know they are fucking him over, the longer they can keep this in the media, the more they can slander his name. What they don't want to accept is that they are the reason he has stayed so popular. You liberals have voted Trump into the position he is in with your attention to the every detail of his life.

Whatever. My thought is that no matter how much he thumbs his nose at the law; fines, bonds and the judge's gag orders he is pretty confident he won't go to jail because of these violations and I think he is right, locking Trump up poses a huge problem for everyone, not just him. This is my liberal view of this messy situation.

People should be concerned about this massive abuse of individual liberty.  But the Russian Manchurian Candidate scandal, where there were fabricated claims by a political opponent, the use of powerful government agencies to spy on a political campaign, participation by the media, with zero consequences, has emboldened the left to continue trampling the Constitution.  And a large section of the public doesn't care.  It's an ends justifies the means mindset at unprecedented levels.

[LurkerNoMore]

I like being responsible for Trumpy's crimes.  It's almost as if I committed them myself.  I like how I am the one turning state's witnesses and supplying evidence against him.  I like how I am the one who is spending my money on his legal fees instead of the election campaign, the "hostages", or the other party candidates that are on the ballot too.  I like how I keep Trumpy's name in the news for having his ass beat in court nonstop.  I like how I prevent a perfectly innocent man - with evidence of his innocence - from obtaining a speedy trial and instead have him suffer nonstop with delays, delays, delays.  I like how I am the one that files nonstop bogus motions on his behalf every week.

Oh wait, that's not me at all.

Oh no, don't worry about that, keep talking about some locker room talk and whether or not Trump has billions of dollars laying around in cash. Liberals will do anything except address the abortion of an administration they voted for.

[LurkerNoMore]

So instead of actually talking about the crimes El Lardo committed himself, let's try deflecting and pretending it is someone else's fault.

It's his circus.  It's his monkeys.

Absolute truth.  Biden is a train wreck.  The only shot he has is to try and keep his zombies angry and focused on lawfare.

It appears this issue has not been resolved and is ongoing, with Trump's attorneys claiming the upcoming hearing on the legitimacy of the $175 million bond is not necessary.

"Not resolved and ongoing"...  now why is that par for course for anything that Trumpy is involved in?

The actual bond agreement itself said that if Trump lost or defaulted then HE would pay the state, not the bonding company.     The bonding company having to pay and then recup their money....that's the entire point of the bond right?
