On the eve of former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg’s perjury sentencing hearing, the New York Attorney General’s Office sent a letter to Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial judge urging him to direct a court-appointed monitor to investigate whether “Defendants and their counsel facilitated that perjury by withholding of incriminating documents.”

The day before Weisselberg was sentenced Wednesday to five months in jail for perjuring himself in testimony at Trump’s civil fraud trial, AG Letitia James’ (D) office called on New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron to empower court-appointed monitor Barbara Jones to investigate “the potential failure to properly produce documents in a legal proceeding relevant to the valuation of Mr. Trump’s triplex.”
