Donald Trump Jrthe former president’s eldest son, admitted in court today that he had signed off on financial documents of the family company that a New York judge later ruled were “fraudulent,” but tried to blame his employees.

During his second day of testimony, Donald Jr., 45, said he relied on accountants from the Trump Organization and partner firm Mazars to make accurate estimates of the value of real estate and other assets.

“They have more information and details about all of this than I do. That’s why we have accountantss”, he argued.

“I don’t remember” and “I trusted the accountants” were the answers given today, on the second day of his testimony, by Donald Trump Jr., when he was presented with a large number of financial documents signed by himself, the company’s executive vice president.

New York State Attorney General Charges Donald Trump and His Two Eldest Sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, that they were “inflating” property values ​​in order to secure favorable bank loans and lower insurance premiums.

Donald Jr.’s testimony concluded before the lunch break and his brother, Eric, was called to the witness stand. The two brothers took over the company in 2017 when their father was elected US president. The former president is scheduled to testify on Monday.

New York Attorney General Leticia James is seeking to fine the Trumps at least $250 million and permanently bar Donald, Donald Jr. and Eric from doing business in the state.

Apart from the official documentsDonald Trump Jr. was also questioned today about an email from a Forbes magazine reporter sent on March 3, 2017, that raised serious doubts about the amount of Trump’s wealth.

The reporter was mainly questioning the square footage of the then president’s three-story residence in Trump Tower, New York. The e-mail addressed the two Trump brothers and Trump Organization chief financial officer Allen Wasselberg.

“It’s crazy everything is written here,” replied Donald Trump Jr. Today, however, he said that he does not remember the specific episode, not even if he “verified» the amount of the property, as the journalist asked him.

This three-story Trump mansion is one of the examples cited by the prosecution because its value was declared at $327 million, based on its square footage: 2,700 square meters, instead of 1,000 which is its actual area.
