Trump Organization CFO Alan Weisselberg Surrenders After Indictment

After the (still-sealed) indictment was handed down by Manhattan prosecutor Cyrus Vance Jr. last night, long-serving Trump Organizatoin CFO Allen Weisselberg surrendered to the district attorney’s office on Thursday morning.

While no photos of Weisselberg surrendering were released to the press, it’s likely the public will get its first look at the senior Trump Organization executive when Weisselberg and the Trump Organization (which has also been criminally charged as a corporation and will be represented in court by a company lawyer) are arraigned by a state judge Thursday afternoon.

Accordng to the NYT, Weisselberg, accompanied by his lawyer, Mary Mulligan, walked into the Lower Manhattan building that houses the criminal courts and the district attorney’s office at about 0620ET Thursday morning. As the NYT pointed out, President Trump once praised Weisselberg for “doing whatever was necessary to protect the bottom line.”

Prosecutors from Vance’s office and from the NY State Attorney General Letitia James’ office are still reportedly looking into whether the Trump Organization neglected to pay payroll taxes on taxable income.

Weisselberg’s indictment and arrest followed months of intense pressure from prosecutors to “flip” on President Trump. From the looks of it, Weisselberg has so far refused to cooperate against the president and his former boss, even after prosecutors questioned his family members, including his ex-daughter in law.
