TRUMP GUILTY - 34 Counts! Jail TIME?

The presumed Republican presidential nominee is now a convicted felon!

Trump's face turned red as the guilty verdict on all 32 counts against him in court. He said to the media:

"This is a disgrace! this was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who was corrupt"

On Thursday, May 30th 2024, the jury in former President Donald Trump's "hush money" trial in New York found him guilty of 34 felonies, making him the first former president in the United States to be convicted of a felony. The jury of 12 New Yorkers determined that Trump violated the law by falsifying corporate documents to conceal a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 presidential election. 

After the second day of deliberations, they found him guilty on all counts. The verdict was issued in the same Manhattan courtroom where Trump has been on trial for six weeks. Trump glanced at each juror as they confirmed their decision to convict. He passionately condemned the ruling in the hallway outside the courtroom, pledging to appeal the conviction. Jurors agreed with prosecutors who claimed Trump authorized the plot to fake checks and other records to keep voters from learning about an alleged sexual encounter with Daniels. 

Prosecutors for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg claimed the conspiracy began during his 2016 campaign and persisted deep into his first year in the White House. Trump denied having sex with Daniels and has pleaded not guilty. Justice Juan Merchan set a July 11 sentencing date. 

Trump faces up to four years in prison and a $5,000 fine for each count, but Merchan has broad discretion in imposing a sentence and may restrict the punishment to a fine, probation, or home confinement.
