Two Trump Organization companies, called the Trump Corporation and Trump Payroll Corporation, were ordered to pay a US$1.6 million fine on Friday after being found guilty last month of 17 counts related to tax fraud. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said Friday he would like to see state law changed to allow higher fines for companies that commit “this type of decade-plus systemic, egregious fraud.”
