Trump's longtime CFO faces sentencing for tax fraud scheme

Published on: 

Allen Weisselberg, a longtime executive for Donald Trump's real estate empire whose testimony helped convict the former president's company of tax fraud, is set to be sentenced Tuesday for dodging taxes on USD 1.7 million in job perks.

New York Judge Juan Manuel Merchan is expected to sentence Weisselberg, a senior Trump Organisation adviser and former chief financial officer, to five months in jail, in keeping with a plea agreement reached in August.
