#NYAG #Amer asks McConney if #AllenWeisselberg asked for his help in committing #TaxFraud, more than once.
#McConney said yes.
McConney also admitted he was directed by #Weisselberg to process a payroll check to Weisselberg’s wife (not an employee) so she could get SS benefits.
McConney he didn’t know it was illegal, prompting Amer to show McConney his testimony from the Weisselberg / #TrumpOrg #criminal #trial last yr, in which he acknowledged he knew it was not lawful.

#Trump lawyer #AlinaHabba objects to the questioning, which she says is leading.
#AndrewAmer, lawyer for the NYAG, calls #McConney a hostile witness. #Habba says he is not a hostile witness & #Engoron wryly says, "he is the defendant." The objection is overruled.
FYI McConney was deemed a #HostileWitness in the #criminal #TaxFraud case last November as well.
