TL;DR Summary

Former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg is set to be sentenced to five months in jail for lying under oath during his testimony in Donald Trump's civil fraud trial. Weisselberg pleaded guilty to lying about his knowledge of the size of a Trump Tower triplex in New York City in order to obtain favorable loan and insurance rates. This will be his second stint behind bars, having served three months last year for tax evasion. The case is part of a larger legal battle involving Trump and his adult sons, who were found liable for using "numerous acts of fraud and misrepresentation" to inflate Trump's net worth in order to secure more favorable loan terms.
