Trump's punishment for falsifying business records if convicted
The Guardian US — May 29, 2024, 04:00 PM UTC
Summary: If Manhattan jury convicts Donald Trump on any of 34 counts of falsifying business records, Judge Juan Merchan will decide his punishment. The charge is a class E felony in New York, punishable by up to four years in prison. Experts believe Trump, a first-time offender, is unlikely to be incarcerated due to the non-violent nature of the crime and logistical and political challenges. Potential penalties include fines, probation, or community service.
