"Ex-Trump CFO Weisselberg Pleads Guilty to Perjury in Manhattan Court"
Former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg pleaded guilty to perjury charges for misleading investigators about the size of Donald Trump's penthouse, facing a potential five-month jail sentence. His plea comes ahead of Trump's criminal trial on charges related to falsifying business records. Weisselberg admitted to lying about his role in Trump's financial statements, including overstating the penthouse's size. The judge ordered Weisselberg to pay $1.1 million, and Trump to pay $454.2 million. Weisselberg's plea agreement did not indicate cooperation with the District Attorney, and he previously spent time in jail for tax fraud.
