On May 30, 2024, Donald Trump was convicted of all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in his New York hush money trial. The conviction marked the first time a former president of the United States was found guilty of a felony. The case centered on payments made before the 2016 presidential election that were logged as legal expenses in business records. Trump was sentenced to an unconditional discharge on January 10, 2025, and is appealing the verdict.
