Alvin Bragg to submit sentencing recommendation to judge in Trump hush money case
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is expected to make his sentencing recommendation in former President Donald Trump’s hush money case.
The sentencing recommendation, expected to be submitted to Judge Juan Merchan on Monday, may remain under wraps until Trump’s sentencing on July 11, the New York Times reported. The former president was found guilty on all 34 felony counts, which could land him a maximum of four years in prison.
Bragg is likely to argue that Trump’s behavior during the trial should warrant time in prison. He repeatedly broke his gag order to denounce the perceived political nature of the trial, attacking jurors, prosecutors, and witnesses on 10 separate occasions.
Most experts agree that if Trump gets prison time at all, he will not be behind bars before or during the November election.

On May 30, Trump became the first president in U.S. history to be convicted of a felony. He was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment to pornography star Stormy Daniels.
The former president has affirmed his innocence and denied the alleged affair.
