In a controversial move, Bragg leveraged COVID-related policies to extend the statute of limitations for an administrative payment error, typically considered a misdemeanor offense.

Felony

Subsequently, Bragg escalated the charge to a felony, alleging a “conspiracy” to commit an unspecified crime. Employing a repetitive tactic, he duplicated this charge 33 times, corresponding to each administrative error, resulting in a total of 37 felony charges against the former president.

Guilty

If found guilty in the New York proceedings alone, Trump could potentially face a cumulative sentence exceeding 100 years behind bars.

Even higher

“I think you’re gonna see some numbers coming out now even higher. People don’t like the persecution, they don’t like what’s going on. They don’t like these fake prosecutors, deranged Jack Smith, the group of them. And I think you’re going to see some big changes being made,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday.
