They weren’t from his personal account, they were from Trump Company accounts - in the company accounts, they were recorded as being for one thing, but they were actually for something else for which no contract/agreement had been signed; this is, under NY law, fraudulent (falsifying business records).
Quote:
the key allegations:
- The main accusation against Trump is that he "repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal criminal conduct that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election"
- By identifying and suppressing harmful stories about him from going public before the election, Trump and others involved in the scheme "violated election laws and made and caused false entries in the business records of various entities in New York"
- The document adds that Trump and his allies "also took steps that mischaracterized, for tax purposes, the true nature of the payments"
