Prosecutors Urge Conviction of Donald Trump in Historic Hush Money Trial
Prosecutors in New York have urged a jury to convict Donald Trump in a trial centered on an alleged conspiracy and cover-up related to a hush money payment made to Stormy Daniels. Trump is accused of falsifying business records to hide the payment. Jury deliberations are expected to start on Wednesday.
Prosecutors in New York have called on a jury to convict Donald Trump for allegedly engaging in a conspiracy and cover-up to hide a payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign.
Trump is accused of falsifying business records to reimburse his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a one hundred thirty thousand dollar payment.
Assistant District Attorney Joshua Steinglass argued that Trump's actions were aimed at preventing voters from learning about the alleged affair.
Trump's defense lawyer, Todd Blanche, insisted the case is based on lies, with Cohen acting out of hatred towards Trump.
Jury deliberations are set to begin on Wednesday.
A conviction could lead to prison time for Trump, though legal experts believe it is unlikely given he is a first-time offender.
