The Irish foreman of the jury for Donald Trump’s hush money trial delivered the former US President his guilty verdict on all 34 counts.
Donald Trump was found guilty on all 34 felony charges of falsifying business records in the first degree after the jury returned its verdict in a courtroom in Manhattan, New York on Thursday afternoon.
The former president was delivered the news by an Irish individual, who was chosen as foreman of the jury. Trump reportedly had to hear ‘guilty’ 34 times in an Irish accent.
Trump, aged 77, was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 election. Ms Daniels said she had a sexual encounter with Trump about a decade beforehand.
The verdict means he becomes the first former US President in the history of the state to be found guilty in a criminal case.
Although little information on the jury is available, the New York Times reported that the unnamed Irish individual enjoys doing “anything outdoorsy” and watches a balance of both MSNBC and Fox News.
