Trump Found Guilty In Hush-Money Trial, Faces Sentencing In July by adenigga(op): 5:15am On May 31, 2024
A New York jury has found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records — the first time a former U.S. President has been convicted of a crime, NBC News reports.

The verdict was read in the Manhattan courtroom, where Trump had been on trial since April 15.

He had pleaded not guilty to all 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment made by his former lawyer Michael Cohen to adult film star Stormy Daniels in the final weeks of the 2016 presidential election.

According to NBC News, Trump looked down with his eyes narrowed as the jury foreperson read the word “guilty” to each count. The jury reached its verdict after 9.5 hours of deliberations, which began Wednesday.

Trump is first former president to be convicted of criminal charges in US history and will be sentenced in July

The historic conviction came as Trump was the presumed Republican nominee for president. The judge thanked the jurors for their service in the weeks-long trial.

“You gave this matter the attention it deserved, and I want to thank you for that,” Judge Juan Merchan told them according to a report by NBC News.

Trump’s attorney Todd Blanche made a motion for acquittal after the jury left the room, which the judge denied.

Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass told the jury in his closing arguments earlier this week that “the law is the law and it applies to everyone equally. There is no special standard for this defendant.” “You, the jury, have the ability to hold the defendant accountable,” Steinglass said.

What has Republican convention got to do with anything?

Lesson: never leave things entirely to your lawyers. The defence lawyers botched the case

The 2024 Republican National Convention is where the delegates of the United States Republican Party will select the party's nominees for president and vice president in the 2024 United States presidential election.

This is embarrassing. Trump just set a record in American history. It took the juries just two days to find him guilty on all counts. As a convicted felon, Trump can't even visit next door neighbor Canada.

It took a porn star to nail Donald Trump. Porn stars are very important people in America.

Donald Trump has become the first former president in the U.S.'s nearly 250-year history to be convicted of a felony.

Hmmm..

Trump going to jail or getting a finehuh

If this happens to be Nigeria or Africa, we will not give deserving kudos to the judiciary, rather, we will definitely say it's a well planned attack on opposition by the sitting President, so that the his closest challenger will not be on the ballot.

Anyways, let's see if Trump will still be on the ballot or it's end of the road for him

This can never happen in Nigeria. People like Tinubu will twist the law to favour themselves, even when it is glaring that they are guilty.

Everything.

This was always the game plan and it was very well played. I have always wondered why Biden and his government ignored Trump all these years..

Now I know.
