Trump Company’s CFO Surrenders Ahead of Expected Unveiling of Criminal Charges
The chief financial officer of the Trump Organization surrendered to authorities on Thursday as he and former U.S. President Donald Trump’s namesake company prepare to face criminal charges, The New York Times said on Thursday.
Allen Weisselberg entered a building housing Manhattan’s criminal court, the newspaper said, where he and a Trump Organization representative are expected to appear later in the day.
