READ: Trump hush money trial verdict sheet
A dozen New York jurors found former President Trump guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records, making him the first former president to be convicted of a felony.
The jurors reached a verdict in the late afternoon, after less than 12 hours of deliberation in the hush money criminal case.
Trump’s charges stemmed from bogus reimbursements he made to his then-fixer, Michael Cohen, who paid a porn actor $130,000 days before the 2016 election to stay quiet about her alleged affair with Trump, which he denies.
Prosecutors charged Trump over 11 invoices Cohen filed, 12 general ledger entries, and 11 checks Trump paid his then-fixer, saying each amounted to lying in New York business records.
