(New York, NY) — A jury says the Trump Organization is guilty on all counts in its New York tax fraud trial. Prosecutors accused the former President’s company of avoiding taxes by paying personal expenses for top executives and giving them compensation without reporting it over a period of 15 years. The prosecution’s star witness, former Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg, pleaded guilty to tax fraud and testified during the trial. Donald Trump himself isn’t charged and he has called the trial politically motivated.
