The president-elect, Donald Trump, has been sentenced in New York on 34 felony counts, which include hush money payments and falsified business records, yet he will serve no jail time.
Judge Juan Mearchan referenced the 'unique and remarkable set of circumstances' surrounding the trial, noting that US presidents are treated as ordinary citizens in court.
From Mar-a-Lago, Trump claimed he is innocent and described the trial as 'a very terrible experience', suggesting it was a conspiracy led by his adversaries.
As of 20 January, Trump will become the first US commander-in-chief to hold office with a felony conviction, adding to his unprecedented political legacy.
