Re: Trump Organization Found Guilty Of Tax Fraud At Trial
Lock him up? Donald Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records and conspiracy.
Quote:
Now the indictment - a formal charge - has been unsealed to the public, here are some of the charges facing Trump...
From August 2015 to December 2017, Trump orchestrated his "catch and kill" scheme through a series of payments that he then concealed through months of false business entries;
In one instance, American Media Inc paid $30,000 to a former Trump Tower doorman, who claimed to have a story about a child Trump had out of wedlock;
In the second instance, AMI paid $150,000 to a woman who alleged she had a sexual relationship with Trump. When Trump directed a lawyer to reimburse AMI in cash, a special counsel indicated to him that the payment should be made via a shell company and not by cash. AMI ultimately declined to accept reimbursement after consulting their counsel;
In the third instance, 12 days before the presidential general election Trump's special counsel wired $130,000 to an attorney for an adult film actress;
After winning the election, Trump reimbursed the special counsel through a series of monthly checks, first from the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust and later from his bank account. In total, 11 checks were issued for a phony purpose.
