PANews reported on May 31 that according to CCTV.com, a jury member of a New York court responsible for the "hush money" case of former US President Trump made a ruling on May 30 local time, and sentenced Trump to all 34 felony charges of falsifying business records in this case. Trump also became the first former president of the United States to be convicted. New York State prosecutors accused Trump of commissioning Cohen to pay $130,000 in "hush money" to porn star Daniels (real name Stephanie Clifford) during his 2016 campaign for the US presidency to prevent the latter from claiming that she had an affair with Trump in 2006. The scandal affected the election. Trump subsequently falsified business records and returned the money Cohen advanced in installments in the name of "lawyer fees" to cover up his violations of New York State and federal election regulations. It is reported that Trump's 34 felony charges can be sentenced to up to 4 years in prison if each charge is established. The judge will sentence him on July 11. The Republican Party will hold a national convention on July 15 to formally nominate Trump as a presidential candidate.
