SONS GRILLED. Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump arrive at New York Supreme Court Thursday for the fraud trial of the Trump Organization. Eric Trump is in court to testify one day after his brother Donald Trump Jr., testified he had not been involved in the organization’s financial documents at the center of the prosecution. AFP
Don Jr, 45, dressed like his brother in a dark blue suit and light blue tie with slicked back hair, was the first to take the stand and he testified that while he signed off on financial statements he relied on the expertise of accountants for their accuracy. “We’re a massive real estate organization,” Eric Trump said, his voice rising. “Certainly, we have financial statements.”
The former president’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, who left the Trump Organization in 2017 to become a White House advisor to her father, is not a co-defendant in the case but has also been ordered to testify. She has appealed the subpoena. Judge Arthur Engoron, who is presiding over the case, has already ruled that Trump, his sons and other senior executives of the Trump Organization committed fraud and the trial is being held to determine penalties and potential sanctions.
