"Ex-Trump CFO Weisselberg Sentenced to 5 Months for Perjury in Fraud Trial"

Allen Weisselberg, former CFO of the Trump Organization, was sentenced to five months in jail for perjury in Donald Trump's civil fraud trial, matching the Manhattan DA's recommendation. Weisselberg had pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury last month for lying in his testimony. This sentencing comes after Weisselberg received a separate five-month sentence last year for tax fraud charges involving the Trump Organization's business dealings. In the civil trial, Trump and his associates were ordered to pay over $350 million in damages, with Trump appealing the judgment and posting a $175 million bond.
