Trump’s Company Could Face Criminal Charges

“The Manhattan district attorney’s office has informed Donald Trump’s lawyers that it is considering criminal charges against his family business, the Trump Organization, in connection with fringe benefits the company awarded a top executive,” the New York Times reports.

“If the case moves ahead, the district attorney, Cyrus Vance Jr., could announce charge against the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, as soon as next week.”

“While the prosecutors had been building a case for months against Mr. Weisselberg as part of an effort to pressure him to cooperate with the inquiry, it was not previously known that the company also might face charges.”
