Prosecutors successfully proved that Donald J. Trump was guilty on all 34 felony counts related to falsifying business records to hide payments made to Michael D. Cohen. This marks Trump as the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime, centering around hush-money deals and efforts to manipulate the media.
The trial featured 22 witnesses and detailed how Trump and his associates engaged in a clandestine scheme with The National Enquirer to suppress damaging stories, promote positive coverage, and undermine his rivals. The $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels for her silence before the election was a key focus.
