When and where were the business records falsified and by whom?

I was told a few day's ago that I should want until President Trump's appearance in court where the charges against him would be made public before weighing the merits of this case. The DA didn't let the defendant know all of the crimes he's accused of which I find to be strange. Why?
Now I have to wait some more? JMO.

Guessing that it was at Trump Tower and done by Wesselberg sp? Probably during the time that Cohen was receiving checks in payback for the 130 thousand that he paid to Stormy Daniels. As I said, just guessing. jmoWhen and where were the business records falsified and by whom?
I don't need the details or any legal arguments. I would just like to know what the secondary felony was. It's very perplexing that the DA is withholding that.Agreed.
I think DA did present the charges. Just not the details, facts, and legal argument (the merits) behind/supporting the charges.
Why?
To frustrate you, me and literally everyone, it seems.
imo, he is laughably absurd. It is Trump--with a lot of help from Senator Graham and other cult followers --who tried to turn our country into a banana republic.Bring out the violins!
Sen. Lindsey Graham Fights Back Tears On Fox News, Begs Viewers To Give Trump Money After Arrest: 'I'm Sorry I'm So Upset'
Graham also complained that neither Bill Clinton nor Hillary Clinton were prosecuted despite lying under oath and mishandling government emails, respectively.radaronline.com
GOP Senator Lindsey Graham fought back tears while begging Fox News viewers to donate money to Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign following his arrest.
During an emotional appearance on Sean Hannity’s eponymous program Hannity on Tuesday night, the South Carolina senator begged viewers to donate money to Trump’s campaign to ensure the United States does “not become a banana republic.”
“We got one last chance here to straighten this out,” Graham said in an appearance on “Hannity,” adding, “2024 is the most important election in my lifetime. America is literally at stake as we know it.”
“Please help President Trump,” he continued. “If you can afford 5 or 10 bucks, if you can’t afford a dollar, fine. Just pray. Make sure you vote as early as you can in your state. Don’t risk anything anymore. Vote as soon as you can. Pray for this country, pray for this president, and if you got any money to give, give it.”
Graham calls for donations following Trump indictment: ‘One last chance here to straighten this out’
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Tuesday took to Fox News to call for donations to former President Trump following his arraignment on criminal charges in Manhattan. “We got one last chance here to …thehill.com

They read the charges. They didn't release the secondary crime that allowed the DA to elevate the misdemeanors to felonies. JMO.Do you know that for a fact? As I would assume all the documents regarding the charges were given to the defendant's attorneys. I believe this is the law in NY (and most places).
What the prosecution seems to be doing is handling this in a way (Grand Jury rather than Arrest Affidavit, etc; no detailed examination of the charges in open court) that allows the defendant more privacy and leniency than most criminal defendants might expect. I don't think the Judge is way out of line in permitting this, considering the situation and that so far, none of the crimes alleged are violent crimes.
But how do you know that Trump and his attorneys know nothing about the charges? Wouldn't at least one of his attorneys attended the Grand Jury hearing? Or are you saying that Trump is unlikely to have paid his attorneys to do this? It's a major violation of US law to refuse to let the defense know the charges, I just think they've kept the charges sealed (and I'm surprised there is no gag order).
Anyway - where did you read that Trump's attorneys were not given the full set of legal documents? Trump has no separate way of approaching the court at this time, unless he represents himself, which is of course not going to be a thing.
IMO.
The former president’s actions rose to the level of felonies, Bragg said in court documents, because they were made to further additional violations of the law. However, he only broadly suggested what those additional acts could be.
I’ve often wondered WTH #45 has going on with Graham. He becomes so pathetic when it comes to #45!
IMO
Bragg said at the news conference that under NY law, he wasn't required to elaborate further.They read the charges. They didn't release the secondary crime that allowed the DA to elevate the misdemeanors to felonies. JMO.
Trump has been charged with 34 felony counts. How strong is the Manhattan D.A.'s case?
How strong is Manhattan Dist. Atty. Alvin Bragg's criminal case against former President Trump? The unsealed indictment provides new details.www.latimes.com
Yes, I know, I mentioned above that it appears to be legal that he's withholding that information. I just would like to know why.Bragg said at the news conference that under NY law, he wasn't required to elaborate further.
I think Bragg withheld it because he doesn't want it discussed by the media. He's trying to ensure a fair trial.Yes, I know, I mentioned above that it appears to be legal that he's withholding that information. I just would like to know why.

He can't keep it secret for long. It's called discovery.I think Bragg withheld it because he doesn't want it discussed by the media. He's trying to ensure a fair trial.
Discovery is given to the defense, not the public.He can't keep it secret for long. It's called discovery.
How would making public the underlying felony create an unfair trial? JMO.
yup, I took a couple of guesses above but all guesses come with a grain of salt.I don't need the details or any legal arguments. I would just like to know what the secondary felony was. It's very perplexing that the DA is withholding that.
Yes, it's hard to be patient. JMO.
I think it is tied to the Dec. release of Trump's federal tax returns and the accompanying documentation. Tax fraud is a Class E Felony.JMO:
I took from Cy Vance's comments last week that for his successor, more facts came in after Vance had put the case aside.
DA Bragg stated something similar. However, under Bragg, some new info revealed itself and convinced Bragg to put this case file back on his desk and re-evaluate.
In all likelihood, one important piece of info was that tax return(s) that became accessible finally - after many appeals.
Are NYS tax law misdemeanors the underlying crime to support the felony charges?
Methinks yes.
Next, what about NYS conspiracy law? Is conspiracy one of the underlying misdemeanors here?
(NYS Penal Law, Section 105.00) New York Consolidated Laws, Penal Law - PEN § 105.00 | FindLaw
In New York State, conspiracy to commit a misdemeanor is a criminal offense that is punishable by imprisonment for up to one year, a fine, or both.

That's true but once served with a demand for a bill of particulars he will have 30 days to reply. We may know more in about a month assuming Trumps lawyers serve that demand this week. MOOBragg said at the news conference that under NY law, he wasn't required to elaborate further.
I think because Trump can't seem to control his constant outbursts of insults, in a month there will be a gag order.That's true but once served with a demand for a bill of particulars he will have 30 days to reply.

I’d think sooner after last nights eruption! IMOI think because Trump can't seem to control his constant outbursts of insults, in a month there will be a gag order.
Thanks for this. Judge Jeanine mentioned this on "The Five" yesterday. DA Bragg will have to cough it up by then.
