Why is trump not in prison right now? I thought he was convicted on thirty something counts of felonies a couple months ago.

[-] modus@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago

Sentencing is on July 11th. He probably won't see prison time, but one can dream.

Is that normal? That doesn't sound normal. If I, a random nobody from nowherevill got convicted of thirty something felonies in a single trial, would my sentencing be multiple months later? I actually don't know, and that might be because I'm kindof an idiot, but this whole thing smells of bullshit.

If you're out on bail, you're typically allowed to be free until sentencing if you aren't a flight risk.The US justice system moves slow as hell, so this isn't uncommon. If he was a regular poor like us, though, and had to pay bail he couldn't afford, he'd have been jailed throughout the entire case.
