Judge Juan Merchan Denies Trump's Third Recusal Request; Sentencing Set for September 18
Aug 14, 2024, 02:15 PM
Judge Juan Merchan in New York has denied former President Donald Trump's third request for recusal in the hush money case. Trump argued that Merchan should step aside due to alleged conflicts of interest, citing Merchan's minor political donations, his daughter's work for Democratic politicians, and a distant connection to Kamala Harris. However, Merchan dismissed these claims, describing them as "innuendo and mischaracterizations." The case involves Trump's conviction on charges related to hush money payments to a porn star. Trump's sentencing is scheduled for September 18, with a ruling on September 4.
