Prosecutors said at this point they are seeking a fine. “We are not yet seeking an incarceratory penalty," assistant district attorney Chris Conroy said, "But the defendant seems to be angling for that." Officials do not necessarily believe Merchan would put Trump in a holding cell in the courthouse but they are planning for contingencies, the officials said. There have not been discussions yet about what to do if Trump is convicted and sentenced to prison․ |
