Specifically, according to CNN, investigators are examining whether the Trump Organization falsified business records connected to the payments, which would violate the state's law.

In their charging document against Cohen, New York federal prosecutors said he sent monthly false invoices to Weisselberg, who forwarded them to Donald Trump Jr. In reality, prosecutors said, the invoices were meant to disguise the reason Cohen was being paid $35,000 in monthly installments — he was being reimbursed for facilitating the hush-money payment to Daniels.

When asked about the false invoices, Cohen said the president directed false transactions in conspiracy with Weisselberg and Trump Jr. as part of a criminal conspiracy of financial fraud.
