Trump's Sentencing in Stormy Daniels Case Faces Possible Delay

The New York court considers postponing Trump's sentence until after his presidency following his recent election victory.

  • Donald Trump was found guilty in May of 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal payments to Stormy Daniels.
  • The sentencing has already been delayed twice and is now potentially postponed again as Trump prepares to assume the presidency on January 20, 2025.
  • Prosecutors argue for maintaining the legal proceedings, while Trump's defense pushes for suspension to avoid hindering his presidential duties.
  • A recent Supreme Court decision has expanded presidential immunity, influencing the potential delay of state-level legal actions against Trump.
  • Observers debate the impact of Trump's election on the legal process, with some suggesting the electoral outcome serves as a public verdict on the charges.
