Allen Weisselberg Sentenced For Lying Under Oath

Weisselberg had previously pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury after reaching a deal with prosecutors.
Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, has been sentenced to five months in jail for lying under oath about his role in Donald Trump’s financial statements, according to The Associated Press.
Last month, Weisselberg pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury after reaching a deal with prosecutors from the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
“Weisselberg looks forward to putting this situation behind him,” Seth L. Rosenberg, one of his lawyers, said at the time.
Weisselberg had falsely claimed during sworn depositions in July 2020 and May 2023 and his testimony in Trump’s civil fraud trial in October that he had no involvement in inflating the value of the former president’s Manhattan penthouse — one of the properties that is at the center of the case against Trump.
“I never even thought about the apartment. It was de minimis, in my mind,” Weisselberg said during the October trial. “It was not something that was that important to me when looking at a $6 billion, $5 billion net worth.”
