NY: Judge warns disgraced former president of jail time if he doesn’t knock off gag order violations

Source: The Hill

“Former President Trump’s hush money judge found he violated a gag order a 10th time, giving Trump his sternest warning yet, that future violations could carry jail time. Judge Juan Merchan on Monday ordered Trump to pay $1,000 for attacking jurors in his historic criminal trial, just days after the judge ruled on earlier set of gag order violations. ‘Defendant is hereby put on notice that if appropriate and warranted, future violations of its lawful orders will be punishable by incarceration,’ Merchan wrote. But the judge handed Trump a partial win, ruling that prosecutors had not proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump violated his gag order in three other statements.” (05/06/24)
