A former American president convicted by the criminal justice system. Donald Trump was found guilty, Thursday, May 30, in the Stormy Daniels case. The twelve jurors found him guilty of having falsified several accounting documents to hide the payment of 130,000 dollars to a porn actress.
This verdict is historic. This is the first time that a former president of the United States has been convicted by the criminal justice system. Donald Trump had a red head, furrowed eyebrows and looked visibly very upset, according to journalists accredited in the courtroom. In front of the cameras, the billionaire was offensive.
He denounced a “rigged” trial, a “shame” and assured that the “real verdict” would fall on November 5, date of the American presidential election. Then he got into his armored car and drove to Trump Tower where other supporters were waiting for him. When he got there, he raised his fist in the air. The former president then retired to his tower.
What’s next for Trump?
Donald Trump will be fixed on his fate on July 11. In the United States, it is up to the judge to decide on the sentence, once the verdict has been pronounced by the jurors. Donald Trump risks up to four years in prison. Having never been convicted of a criminal offense before, it is likely that he will be sentenced to a suspended sentence, a fine or community service.
But in all cases, even if convicted, Donald Trump perfectly entitled to run for president. “No one is above the law,” Joe Biden’s campaign team responded after this conviction.
