Eric Trump's Testimony Raises Red Flags in Trump Organization Trial
Send us your feedback to audioarticles@vaarta.com
In the New York fraud trial threatening the Trump Organization, legal experts cautioned that Eric Trump's testimony offered no advantage to his family.
Like his brother Donald Trump Jr., Eric attributed the overstated financial statements to the company's accountants. His testimony prompted Judge Arthur Engoron to hold the company and family responsible for fraud before the trial commenced.
The session concluded early on Friday, anticipating Donald Trump's testimony when the trial resumes Monday.
Former U.S. Attorney Harry Litman tweeted about Eric Trump's challenging day on the stand. Litman pointed out Eric's signature on inaccurate documents, including bank loan papers, while frequently citing reliance on accountants or memory lapses.
CNN legal analyst Elie Honig remarked that Eric Trump's testimony did not go well and might complicate his father's testimony in the upcoming week.
Honig highlighted the change in circumstances since Donald Trump's prior deposition, now facing four indictments. He stressed the risk of Trump taking the stand and making comments that might trigger potential criminal investigations.
New York Attorney General Letitia James called out Eric and Donald Jr. in a social media video, pointing to their involvement in their family's fraudulent business, contradicting their claims.
James warned Donald Trump of her commitment to uncovering the truth, emphasizing that attempts to hide his alleged misconduct with intimidation or threats would not deter their pursuit.
