Letitia James: "Mr. Trump made known through Alan Weisselberg that he wanted his net worth reflected on the statements to increase a desire Mr. Weisselberg or others carried out year after year in their fraudulent preparation of the statements.

And when asked about these meetings under oath as part of our deposition, both men, Mr. Trump and Mr. Weisselberg, invoked their Fifth Amendment privilege against self incrimination, and they refused to answer."

When asked under oath if he, Mr. Trump, continued to review and approve the statements. After becoming President of the United States in 2017, mr. Trump again invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege and refused to answer. Over the course of our investigation, we found that Mr. Trump, his children, the Trump Organization created and used more than 200 false and misleading asset valuations on a statement of financial condition over that ten year period. They issued statements that were in clear violation of accepted general accounting principles in the United States."
