Allen Weisberg, one of Trump’s confidants, pleaded guilty to tax fraud in July. The man is accused of hiding about $1.7 million in benefits in kind from the Trump Organization from the tax authorities between 2005 and 2021. He would have thus avoided paying nearly a million dollars in federal and local taxes.
James has therefore asked Trump to make a statement in her New York office on January 7. The Trump Organization is accused of helping to hide those benefits. The former president risked a political “indictment” in July.
