Prosecutors Seek to Uphold Trump's Hush Money Conviction, Suggest Delaying Sentencing
Dec 10, 2024, 06:56 PM
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office has argued that President-elect Donald Trump's criminal conviction in his New York hush-money case should stand despite his recent election victory. The prosecutors have suggested that the case could be halted while Trump is in office, citing the Nixon precedent. They have indicated a willingness to delay sentencing until Trump leaves office, potentially in 2029, rather than dismissing the case outright. This approach would preserve the conviction while avoiding immediate punishment or a prolonged legal battle.
