It began in New York with the jury selection of the trial against the Trump Organization, Donald Trump's family company, on charges of fraud and tax evasion.

The former president is not himself a defendant in that criminal trial, but he has accused his political rivals, Democrats and President Joe Biden, of continuing a "witch hunt" two weeks before the November midterm elections.

Gjyqi, në Gjykatën e Lartë të Manhatanit, ka të bëjë me parregullsitë në kontabilitetin e kompanisë nga viti 2005 e në vazhdim, si dhe fshehjen nga autoritetet tatimore të kompensimit të marrë nga drejtuesit e Organizatës Trump.

The company's former chief financial officer, Allen Weiselberg, 75, reached a deal with prosecutors in August and pleaded guilty to 15 counts of fraud and tax evasion involving $1.76 million — income he failed to report to the IRS between 2005- 2021. The former close associate of Trump is not a defendant, but a witness in the trial. He admitted that he had received, without declaring them, a lot in kind, such as an apartment in Manhattan, the rental costs of two Mercedes for himself and his wife, and cash for his vacations. He is considered a key witness in the trial against the company, which is now run by former President Donald Trump Jr.'s two sons. and Eric Trump.

The company owns real estate, hotels and golf courses. Two of its subsidiaries, Trump Corporation and Trump Payroll Corp, are also being targeted by judicial authorities.

Trump, via his page on Truth Social, his social networking site, accused Democrats of "torturing" and threatening an executive at his company for years, without mentioning Weiselberg by name.

"Allen Weiselberg admitted in court that he used his position at the Trump Organization to defraud taxpayers and enrich himself personally," U.S. Attorney Alvin Bragg said in August when the former CFO pleaded guilty.

Under the plea agreement with prosecutors, Weiselberg will have to pay about $2 million in back taxes — plus interest and penalties — and testify at trial. He has so far refused to testify against Trump himself personally.

The company is accused of keeping duplicate books under Weiselberg's watch to hide the bonuses he and other executives received. If convicted, she could be fined up to $1.7 million.

The trial is expected to last two weeks.

Another investigation is underway against Donald Trump, by the Attorney General of New York, Leticia James, on suspicion of tax violations in the Trump Organization. In September, James announced that she would sue Trump and his children, Donald Trump Jr., Eric and Ivanka. He is seeking $250 million in damages on behalf of the state of New York.
