Allen Weisselberg, former CFO at the Trump Organization, leaves court in Manhattan after pleading guilty to perjury.
  • On Monday in Manhattan, Allen Weisselberg pleaded guilty to two state felony counts of perjury.
  • Both lies involved the size of Donald Trump's Trump Tower penthouse on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
  • The plea essentially renders the former Trump Org CFO useless as a hush-money trial witness.

Allen Weisselberg had little choice but to plead guilty to perjury after Manhattan prosecutors caught him blatantly lying about lying, as they revealed in court Monday.
