Ex-Trump CFO Allen Weisselberg sentenced to 5 months for perjury in Trump civil fraud trial
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg recommended a five-month jail sentence for Weisselberg after he pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury.
Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, was sentenced Wednesday to five months in jail after pleading guilty to two counts of perjury last month in his testimony during former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial.
The sentencing matched Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's recommendation.
After Weisselberg's sentence was agreed upon by prosecutors and the defense, Judge Laurie Peterson asked him whether there was anything he would like to say.
Weisselberg replied, "No, your honor," and the judge handed down the sentence.
The hearing lasted about two minutes.
