Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg said prosecutors followed facts and law ‘without fear or favour’ after a jury found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts in his criminal hush-money trial. ‘While this defendant may be unlike any other in American history,’ Bragg said, ‘we arrived at this trial, and ultimately today at this verdict, in the same manner as every other case that comes through these courthouse doors – by following the facts and the law.’ It was the first time a former US president was ever tried or convicted in a criminal case, and was the first of Trump’s four criminal cases to reach trial
