Asked by his own lawyer Tuesday why he retired from the Trump Organization after nearly 40 years, the company's former controller, Jeffrey McConney, appeared to choke up.

"I'm very proud of the work I did for 35 years," McConney said before listing several agencies that have subpoenaed him in recent years, including federal investigators from the Southern District of New York and the state's attorney general. He also described testifying before a grand jury, though he neglected to mention days of witness testimony in the company's 2022 criminal fraud trial.
