Washington, U.S. | bazzup |The real estate firm bearing former President Donald Trump’s name was found guilty of felony tax fraud on Tuesday by a jury in New York City.

The two Trump Organization corporations were found guilty on all counts, including conspiracy, criminal tax fraud, fabricating business records, and scheme to defraud, by the jury.

In the case involving his company’s effort to evade taxes on executive salary in the form of benefits, Trump was not a defendant.
