Allen Weisselberg, the former CFO for the Trump Organization, was released from the Rikers Island jail complex in NY. The 75-year-old was sentenced to five months of jail and five years of probation, but was released after three months for good behavior.
After pleading guilty to 15 felonies, including tax evasion, the 75-year-old was sentenced in January to five months of jail and five years of probation. However, he was eligible to be released after three months for good behavior.Prosecutors offered Weisselberg a plea deal, ensuring he would avoid a lengthy sentence if he testified truthfully against the Trump organization.
Weisselberg had worked with the Trump organization since the mid-1980s before he was found guilty of defrauding the federal government, state of New York, and city for more than $900,000 in unpaid taxes and dishonorable tax refunds.Trump targeted the presiding judge in the case for Weisselberg in a Truth Social post, writing Judge Merchan “railroaded” Weisselberg to plead guilty and “treated my companies, which didn’t ‘plead,’ VICIOUSLY.
The Trump organization is still in connection with Weisselberg, as they've made severance payments and continued to pay his legal fees, according to the New York Times.
