Former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg was sentenced to five months in jail on Tuesday after pleading guilty to various felony charges.
The 75-year-old longtime lieutenant of former President Donald Trump is expected to immediately begin his sentence at Rikers Island in New York City following court proceedings on Tuesday, according to a report from CNN. He struck a deal with prosecutors last year in which he would plead guilty to 15 felonies, testify against the Trump Organization, pay $2 million in various back taxes and penalties, and waive any rights to appeal.
