The Trump Organization has removed Allen Weisselberg as an officer from dozens of subsidiaries after he was indicted on tax fraud charges,according to a report Monday.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Weisselberg has been dropped from executive positions several companies including Mar-Lago and Trump Payroll Corp.
The 73-year-old was listed as treasurer, director, vice president and secretary of Trump Payroll, which handles the salaries of staffers in the Trump business empire.
Now Donald Trump Jr. is listed as executive vice president, director, secretary, treasurer and vice president and Eric Trump is listed as president, director and chairman, according to Florida Department of State business records.
It was also reported last week that he was terminated as a director at Trump International Golf Club Scotland Limited. The report did not detail the other firms where his roll has changed.
There are also discussions for wholesale changes for Weisselberg's role in the Trump family business, two weeks after he was dragged into a New York court in handcuffs and accused of running a 15-year tax fraud scheme.
He has pleaded not guilty to 15 state charges, including grand larceny.
However he is expected to remain at the company he has worked at since 1973, the report said.
Weisselberg was indicted two weeks ago on 'sweeping and audacious' tax and fraud charges, after prosecutors of taking a total of $1.7 million in perks and compensation that the longtime CFO and the Trump Organization did not declare in tax filings.
Last Monday he was photographed returning to work at Trump Tower in Manhattan in his white Mercedes.
He was also captured in images first revealed by DailyMail.com the day before the indictment came down – with the before and after images buttressing claims he will not 'flip' on the Trump and the company he has led
