Professor of Constitutional Law James Sample talked to WCBS-TV regarding the matter of President-elect Donald Trump’s hush money case. Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg told the court that his office would be open to a four-year freeze on Trump’s sentencing while maintaining that it would continue to back the jury’s guilty verdict in the case.
“If Judge [Juan] Merchan delays sentencing until after Mr. Trump’s term of office, that would be prudent and sensible under the indisputably extraordinary circumstances. But a delay in sentencing is not, nor should it be perceived to be, a prelude to a dismissal,” Professor Sample said.
Professor Sample regularly comments on voting rights and constitutional issues in leading media outlets.
