Trump Found Guilty in Hush Money Trial, Sentencing Set Before GOP Convention
TL;DR
Former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 felony counts in a historic hush-money trial in New York, marking the first time a US president has been convicted of a crime. The charges relate to falsifying business documents to cover up a payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 election. Trump, who faces up to four years in prison for each count, has denied the charges and plans to appeal. The verdict could significantly impact the 2024 election, where Trump is expected to be the Republican nominee.
