Judge Juan Merchan presided over the convictions and guilty plea of two Trump Organization companies and their former chief financial officer.
When former President Donald Trump arrives for his first appearance in Manhattan Criminal Court next week, he will look up at a judge who has played a key role in several investigations involving those in Trump's orbit.
Trump also accused Merchan of treating his companies"viciously." A court spokesperson declined to comment when asked about Trump's post. Merchan also spent five years as an assistant district attorney in Manhattan. A source with knowledge of the Trump legal team's internal discussions cited this role as one of the reasons they consider him"pro-prosecutor." in December that prior to becoming a prosecutor, Merchan worked as an auditor at a real estate firm. That job, the paper wrote, made him"unusually equipped to digest" the spreadsheets and calculations of a complex financial crimes case.
