Welcome to our latest update on the historic criminal trial of former President Donald Trump. In a landmark decision, a New York jury has convicted Trump on 34 felony charges for falsifying business records, making him the first former president in U.S. history to be convicted of a crime.
Trump sat sullenly, looking down at the table as the verdict was read, marking the end of a weeks-long trial that dominated headlines and led to this unprecedented conviction. Addressing reporters outside the courthouse, Trump called the proceedings “rigged” and vowed to appeal, asserting this as a grave miscarriage of justice.
**Key Moments from the Trial:**
🗓 Over the past six weeks, the prosecution argued that Trump, his former attorney Michael Cohen, and National Enquirer publisher David Pecker conspired to defraud voters ahead of the 2016 election by paying off women to conceal stories about Trump’s sexual history, without recording those payments as campaign-finance expenses.
🛡 Trump’s defense countered that the payments did not qualify as campaign expenses and were unrelated to his political ambitions.
⚖️ The jury began deliberations on Wednesday after receiving instructions from Judge Juan Merchan. The prosecution had to prove that Trump falsified business records to conceal an underlying crime, which they claimed was a conspiracy to defraud the American people.
đź“… Judge Merchan has set the sentencing hearing for July 11, just days before the Republican National Convention. Trump faces up to four years in prison, but most legal observers believe he will likely be placed on probation.
**Highlights from the Trial:**
â–¶Stormy Daniels testified with graphic details about her alleged encounter with Trump, which he denies.
▶Michael Cohen, the prosecution’s star witness, implicated Trump in the hush-money payments and testified about reimbursement through falsified legal expenses.
▶Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker testified about the “catch-and-kill” agreement to suppress negative stories about Trump during the 2016 election.
**Controversies:**
â–¶Trump and his allies accused Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and Judge Merchan of political bias, citing donations to the Biden campaign and connections to the Democratic Party.
â–¶Throughout the trial, Trump was under a gag order limiting his ability to criticize individuals connected to the case.
