“Godspeed For Your Second Term” Donald Trump Gets Unconditional Discharge In Hush Money Case | US – News18

10 days before his inauguration, President-elect Donald Trump was handed an “unconditional discharge” in the hush money case, which means he is a convicted felon but will face no further penalties. Justice Merchan handed out unconditional discharge on all 34 charges, as expected. Merchan told the court that he has determined that unconditional discharge is “the only lawful sentence, without encroaching upon the highest office of the land”. During hearing, Trump, who appeared via a video link, said his criminal trial and conviction has “been a very terrible experience” and insisted he committed no crime. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
