Stormy Daniels Says Donald Trump Shouldn’t Go To Jail In Hush Money Case
The adult film star Stormy Daniels, who is at the centre of the legal case against Donald Trump, stated that she does not believe the former president should go to prison if found guilty of hiding the hush money payments he made to her.
“I don’t think that his crimes against me are worthy of incarceration. I feel like the other things that he has done, if he is found guilty, absolutely,” Daniels, 44, said in an interview with Fox Nation’s Piers Morgan to be broadcast on Thursday.
Regarding allegations that he organised hush-money payments to Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal before the 2016 American election to censor publication of their alleged affairs, Trump was charged in New York on Tuesday with 34 felonies for falsifying business records.
Trump, 76, is also under criminal investigation in Washington for mishandling confidential materials and trying to rig the 2020 election; he is also the subject of a criminal investigation in Georgia for attempting to rig the state’s election.
Trump, the first U.S. president to be charged criminally while in office or afterward, was accused by prosecutors in Manhattan of attempting to hide a violation of election rules during his successful 2016 campaign.
Trump, who is currently in the lead for the GOP nomination in 2024, has admitted the payment but denies having an affair with Daniels.
The case’s subsequent hearing is scheduled for December 4. According to legal experts, a trial might not even begin for a year, and an indictment or even a conviction would not be legally binding.Daniels told Morgan that if the case goes to trial, she would like to testify.
“I have nothing to hide. I’m the only one that has been telling the truth,” she said.
