Defense Attorney Questions Co-Author's Role In Trump Book

Trump Organization trial in New York State Supreme Court in New York

During a recent court session, defense attorney Todd Blanche initiated the cross-examination of Sally Franklin, an employee at a publishing group. The focus of the questioning revolved around the co-authorship of the book 'Trump: How to Get Rich'.

Blanche's first inquiry to Franklin was regarding the role of the co-author in the book. Franklin responded by stating that she was unsure of the extent of the co-author's contributions, indicating that the co-author had assisted the primary author in some capacity.

The line of questioning suggests that the defense is seeking to clarify the level of involvement of the co-author in the creation of the book. By probing into whether the co-author was a ghostwriter, Blanche aims to shed light on the authorship dynamics behind 'Trump: How to Get Rich'.

Franklin's testimony hints at a collaborative effort between the primary author and the co-author, although the specifics of their partnership remain ambiguous. The defense's inquiry into the nature of the co-author's role underscores the importance of understanding the nuances of authorship and contribution within the realm of publishing.
