Donald Trump became the first former US president to be convicted of felony criminal charges Thursday.
The real estate mogul, former commander-in-chief and presumptive Republican 2024 presidential nominee was found guilty on all counts Thursday by a jury of 12 Manhattanites in the unprecedented criminal prosecution of an ex-president.
The bombshell verdict was read in Manhattan Supreme Court just after 5 p.m. following nearly 12 hours of deliberations spread over two days — and a seven-week trial that saw X-rated testimony from porn star Stormy Daniels and Trump’s former “fixer” Michael Cohen take the stand against him.
“Guilty,” the jury foreman said calmly on the first count — before repeating the word 33 more times.
