Title: Ivanka Trump Testifies in Civil Fraud Trial Involving Trump Organization
Subtitle: State Attorney General accuses former President Donald Trump of inflating or deflating asset values
Ivanka Trump, daughter of former President Donald Trump, took the stand yesterday in the ongoing civil fraud trial against her father and the Trump Organization. Although not a defendant, Ivanka’s testimony was highly anticipated, as she was expected to be the final witness called by the state attorney general’s legal team.
During her questioning, Ivanka was probed about her knowledge of her father’s statements regarding the financial condition of his assets and her involvement in the purchase of the Trump National Doral property. Her responses were measured as she denied awareness of her father’s statements, claiming she did not recall if the bank had even asked for them.
State Attorney General Letitia James accuses Donald Trump of manipulating the value of assets to secure better deals between 2011 and 2021. The trial aims to determine if the former president had deliberately inflated or deflated asset values. Ivanka’s attorney argued that her actions within the Trump Organization occurred earlier, before the statute of limitations had expired.
Donald Trump’s legal defense for the civil fraud charges is set to begin next week, following a testy and combative testimony earlier in the week. The former president made jabs at the trial and those involved, creating a contentious atmosphere in the courtroom.
Notably, both Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. had also testified. They denied any involvement in the financial statements under scrutiny, but the evidence presented during their testimonies seemed to suggest otherwise. Co-defendants Jeffrey McConney and Allen Weisselberg have also taken the stand to provide their account of events.
As the defense presents its case, the trial will continue to delve deeper into the allegations made by the state attorney general. The outcome of this high-profile trial could have significant implications for the Trump Organization and its future. Celebrity Beauty Buzz will continue to provide updates as the proceedings unfold.
