Judge rules Donald Trump defrauded banks, insurers as he built real estate empire
- Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Donald Trump committed fraud and ordered his companies to be removed from his control and dissolved.
- Engoron's ruling is a significant blow to Trump's image as a wealthy real estate mogul turned political powerhouse. By overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth, Trump deceived banks, insurers, and others.
- The ruling found that Trump inflated the value of his assets, including Mar-a-Lago, by as much as 2,300% and lied about the size of his Manhattan apartment. Limited liability companies controlling Trump's key properties will be dissolved and put under receiver authority.
