Convicted felon Donald Trump's decision to attack Justice Merchan (& his daughter) repeatedly & in the most personal terms possible is a bold strategy. Justice Merchan now has complete discretion whether to sentence Trump to probation or imprisonment of up to 4 years. He can consider the contempts.
I read it’s a maximum of 4 years, with sentences running concurrently on all counts. Very typical on these types of charges to get only probation too. Not a lawyer but I follow a lot of them :)
That's right (am a lawyer) but Trump's interference w/ 2020 election, refusal to accept a loss in 2024, contempt for rule of law, attacks on judge & family & court staff, and numerous gag order violations all show spectacular degree of criminal entitlement. Letting that skate would be real weird.
