Trump Set for January 10 Sentencing in Hush Money Case Involving Stormy Daniels, Judge Signals No Jail Time for 34 Felony Counts
Jan 5, 2025, 06:44 PM
Donald Trump is set to be sentenced on January 10 for a felony conviction related to hush money payments made during his 2016 presidential campaign to silence allegations of an affair with porn star Stormy Daniels. New York State Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan has upheld Trump's conviction but indicated that he will not impose any jail time. Trump's legal team has filed a motion to delay the sentencing, arguing that his imminent inauguration as president should take precedence over the case. In response to the ruling, Trump has publicly criticized Judge Merchan, labeling him a 'radical partisan' and claiming that the legal proceedings are a politically motivated 'witch hunt.' He has also accused the Biden administration of influencing the case against him, asserting that the prosecution is a 'lawless' effort to undermine his presidency. Despite the conviction, Trump maintains that he did not falsify business records and has vowed to appeal the decision. This situation marks a historic moment as Trump could become the first president to take office while being a convicted felon.
