TL;DR Summary

Allen Weisselberg, the ex-CFO of the Trump Organization, is reportedly negotiating a plea deal with Manhattan prosecutors in which he would plead guilty to perjury, admitting he lied on the stand in former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial and under oath while being interviewed by the New York Attorney General’s office. This potential guilty plea would mark Weisselberg’s second recent plea, as he previously pleaded guilty to criminal charges in 2022 related to tax evasion. The negotiations come amid a lawsuit brought by the New York Attorney General, accusing Trump, his children, and business associates of fraud by misstating asset valuations for personal gain.
