NBCUniversal Media, LLC The indictment, unsealed Thursday, July 1, alleges a long-running scheme to allow CFO Allen Weisselberg to avoid millions of dollars in income taxes. The indictment also mentions an “Unindicted Co-conspirator.”

Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization chief financial officer indicted on tax fraud charges this month, has quietly been removed from top positions at more than two dozen Trump subsidiaries, NBC News has confirmed.

Weisselberg, 73, was removed from positions with at least 28 Trump subsidiaries, according to filings with the Florida State Department that were first reported Monday by The Wall Street Journal.

A person familiar with the matter told NBC News that the Trump Organization took a "prudent corporate governance approach" for the time being to avoid any potential issues in Florida but added that Weisselberg's overall role with the Trump Organization remains unchanged.
