Donald Trump found guilty of all 34 counts in historic New York hush money case
The jury’s guilty verdict marks the first time a former president has been convicted of a crime.
PUMP IT INTO MY VEINS!!!
This article does a poor job describing the sentencing compared to the Guardian, which happened to be the one I read:
The immediate next question is: what punishment should the former US president receive?
It’s a decision that rests entirely with Juan Merchan, the judge overseeing the case. The crimes Trump has been found guilty of, falsifying business records in the first degree, are class E felonies in New York, the least serious category, and punishable by up to four years in prison. His sentencing is set for 11 July.
But Trump is unlikely to be sentenced to prison, experts say. He is a first-time offender, and the crime he has been found guilty of is a non-violent paper crime.
Emphasis mine.
Unfortunate, considering there seems to be almost no chance of the more serious trials being done before November.
