Breaking: Ex-President Donald Trump Found Guilty on All Counts in Hush Money Trial

Published

on

Former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all counts in his New York criminal Hush Money trial. The trial centered on allegations that he falsified business records to hide a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. This makes Trump the first former U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.

The initial charges against Trump included 34 felony counts related to falsifying business records. Prosecutors claimed that Trump falsified the records in order to cover up his alleged unlawful interference in the 2016 presidential election by making a $130,000 hush money payment. As a result, the falsification charges were considered felonies.

The trial against the presumptive Republican presidential nominee lasted for more than six weeks, making it the first criminal trial in United States history involving a former president. The conviction of Trump represents a significant moment in history, and its potential impact on the 2024 presidential election remains uncertain.
