Donald Trump Found GUILTY Of All Charges In Historic Hush Money Trial

Posted on by EDITORIAL FEATURES

Donald Trump became the first U.S. president convicted of a crime on Thursday (May 30). A New York jury found him guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.


Prosecutors said Trump falsely and illegally categorized reimbursements to his former lawyer Michael Cohen to cover up a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Cohen paid off Daniels to keep her silent about an alleged affair with Trump ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

Trump’s hush money trial began in April. It was the first of his four criminal cases to go to trial.
