Trump probation interview set for Monday after hush money conviction
NBC News | Comcast ^ | June 9, 2024 | By Adam Reiss, Laura Jarrett and Summer Concepcion

Former President Trump is scheduled to sit for a virtual interview on Monday with a New York City probation officer from his home at Mar-a-Lago with his attorney Todd Blanche at his side after he was found guilty on all counts in the hush money trial against him last month, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.

Duncan Levin, a former Manhattan prosecutor turned defense attorney, said the prosecution is likely to ask for jail time.

“To the extent that an E felony is punishable by jail, this case screams out for jail time, he has shown no remorse and has been held in contempt 10 times, but the judge warned him if he breaks the gag order I will send you to jail and then he did it again several times,” Levin said. “And subverting the election process is as serious a records violation as has ever come through the New York courts.”

“Trump reimbursed him on February 14, 2017”

There was a series of monthly invoices and checks resulting in the 34 counts.

What happens if he stays in Florida & refuses to return to NY? Since it’s a state issue, DeSantis could refuse to extradite him.

They are going to ask him if he has “remorse” ... about being railroaded by a bunch of lunatics?

She’s a bundler for Democrat campaign contributions.

There have been campaign contributions sent directly to her house, some in the hundreds of thousands.

The family is getting rich off this trial:

Probation officers are frequently used by judges to prepare a “pre-sentence report.” It doesn’t mean that the defendant will be sentenced to probation.

If Merchan jails PDJT in Rikers where his Secret Service detail inexplicably disappears and PDJT is murdered . . . the Left will hoist Merchan on a pedestal higher than that of Bob Woodward and Bammy hisself.

Merchan knows this and will not deny himself his rightful place in history.

Trump’s trial was rigged as much as the election was the spot light has come on about many who had dealings with it.

Took 3 people to write this?......they’re combined IQ must be somewhere south of 65

Multiple authors on a MSM piece is a flashing-red-light-with-an-ear-piercing-siren warning that major stupidity is ahead. They never disappoint. Their individual stupidity is compounded by the others.

Does this explain how there are 34 counts, each with its own possible jail time, for one settlement?

I went to the Trump rally today in Las Vegas and unless they lock him in solitary confinement and “outlaw” his campaign, he should win this time.

Yes. He subverted the election process because his secretary made an entry in his personal leger in 2017.

If we catch your lawyer paying hush money to another bimbo, and listing it as a legal expense, it’ll be the clink for you, see?
And don’t go overvaluing real estate on a loan application again, either, or inciting insurrections with any of that “peaceful and patriotic” frabajaba, neither. LOL.

cableguymn, I’m seeing statements like yours on several posts.
Do you have published or broadcast citation?
I know the supposed poster of the original comment has called himslef/herself a ‘$hitposter’, but I can’t find any credible, independent confirmation that it has been ‘dismissed as a internet prank.’

That way each can point to the next person and say “It’s not my fault. I don’t take responsibility. They did it.”

When it was suggested Benjamin Franklin write the Declaration of Independence he refused. I long ago concluded I would never again write something to be cowritten with a committee.

I'd say you could bet your last nickel on it...

But are the donations made out to her personally or to the campaign? The article doesn’t say anything about the donations going directly to her house.

And I thought the trial was also helping to bring in lots of money for Trump’s campaign?

If Trump was actually guilty of a class Z felony..wouldn’t this be his first offense and wouldn’t he get probation?

E Felony, huh?

Is that what you call the same beyond statute of limitations misdemeanor 34 times?

Because no.

Several monthly invoices + receipt ledger entries + signed checks + dispersal ledger entries = 34 counts
