The verdict in former President Donald Trump’s New York civil business fraud trial has been delayed at least another week after Judge Arthur Engoron initially said that he would try to announce his final ruling by the end of January. A spokesman for the New York State Office of Court Administration said that Engoron’s verdict is expected to come in early to mid-February‚ but he added that was a “rough estimate” and “subject to modifications‚” CNBC reported. Closing arguments in the trial finished last week as New York Attorney General Letitia James seeks to fine Trump more than $370 million in a lawsuit alleging Trump misled the value of his company’s assets in financial statements. Trump and Engoron have battled throughout the trial as the former president has labeled Engoron a “deranged‚ Trump-hating judge.” Throughout the trial‚ Engoron — who has donated thousands of dollars in political contributions to Democrats — has scolded Trump for slamming prosecutors during his testimony. Engoron was incensed when the former president said prosecutors were unjustly targeting him‚ adding that Engoron “will rule against me because he always rules against me.” Engoron has already rescinded some of Trump’s business licenses in New York‚ finding Trump‚ along with some of his top executives including Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump‚ liable for fraud. At the end of the trial last month‚ Engoron shot down Trump’s attempt to give his own closing argument after Trump’s lawyers objected to the judge’s insistence that Trump speaks only to “relevant” matters. Trump has held that James — who vowed to “get” the former president while she was running for attorney general — is targeting him for political reasons. Trump’s defense has argued that their client’s financial statements were unaudited estimates and were clearly offered as such‚ adding that the estimates of his net worth were too low‚ the opposite of what James is claiming. “There have been no losses to any party‚ as the loans here were negotiated between very sophisticated parties‚” Trump’s lawyers Christopher Kise and Michael T. Madaio wrote in court papers on Friday. “Lenders made their own informed decisions.” Last week‚ a jury ruled against the former president in another trial in New York‚ finding that Trump should pay writer E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million in damages for defamation after Carroll accused Trump of sexual assault. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The jury found that Trump owed Carroll $11 million to cover the costs of a campaign to repair the harm done to her reputation and $7.3 million to address the emotional harm the 80-year-old writer sustained from remarks Trump made in 2019 about her and her accusations of rape. The jury ordered Trump to pay another $65 million in punitive damages. Tim Pearce contributed to this report. 

A massive riot at a California prison on Wednesday led to eight corrections officers and one inmate being hospitalized‚ according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Authorities said that 200 inmates at Ironwood State Prison in Blythe “rushed toward the officers attacking them with fists and rocks.” The violent outburst began around 10 a.m. Wednesday when officers were escorting an inmate who was part of a contraband investigation‚ KCRA reported. The prisoners reportedly rushed the corrections officers after the inmate they were escorting headbutted a staff member and was being subdued. Officers fired warning shots from their rifles and then used “chemical agents and non-lethal impact rounds” to stop the riot‚ authorities said in a statement. The eight corrections officers and the inmate who were injured in the melee were treated at a hospital and later released from care. Information on the extent of the corrections officers’ and inmate’s injuries wasn’t available. Authorities have reportedly identified at least 30 prisoners who had direct involvement in the riot as their investigation continues. Ironwood is a minimum-medium security prison that houses around 2‚500 prisoners east of Los Angeles‚ according to KCRA. California issued a statewide prison threat warning after the riot on Wednesday‚ which sparked a 24-hour statewide threat assessment as prisoners were restricted to their cells. As California imprisons fewer people and some prisons close down permanently‚ Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom has promised to focus more on rehabilitation. Last year‚ Newsom announced the transformation of the high-security San Quentin State Prison into a “center for innovation focused on education‚ rehabilitation and breaking cycles of crime.” Newsom argued that a greater emphasis on rehabilitation will be better for prisoners and communities in the long run. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “We’re here to do more and be better‚ to reconcile and to address the stubborn realities. We are as dumb as we want to be‚” he said at San Quentin. “Two-thirds of folks coming out of prison every year‚ within three years‚ violate some probation order or commit another damn crime. Where’s the safety in that?”

  The anticipated verdict in the civil fraud trial against former President Donald Trump has been postponed‚ with new developments suggesting that a last-minute intervention may be influencing the timeline. The decision‚ which was expected by January 31st‚ has now been deferred to an unspecified date in early to mid-February‚ according to a spokesperson for the New York court. The delay comes after an 11-week trial that has been fraught with controversy and political undertones. Critics of the proceedings have labeled it a “non-jury Soviet-style show trial‚” pointing to what they perceive as bias and irregularities in the judicial process. The presiding judge‚ Arthur Engoron‚ had previously indicated his intention to deliver a verdict by the end of January‚ but this has since been pushed back without a clear explanation.

In her correspondence dated January 26‚ Jones highlighted “certain deficiencies” in the financial information she reviewed‚ including incomplete disclosures and inconsistencies. Particularly concerning is a $48 million loan related to Trump’s building in Chicago‚ which was reported as a liability over multiple years despite the Trump Organization later determining that “this loan never existed.” While Jones has not concluded fraudulent activity‚ she warned that without addressing these deficiencies‚ misstatements and errors could persist. Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell at the White House with former president Bill Clinton pic.twitter.com/g7ObXmF21J — Creepy.org (@CreepyOrg) February 2‚ 2024 The case itself has seen its fair share of drama‚ with Trump taking a stand in the courtroom weeks prior‚ where he expressed his belief that he was the victim of fraud and accused Judge Engoron of having his own agenda. This outburst followed a series of legal setbacks for Trump‚ including Engoron’s ruling that he engaged in fraud and an order for the dissolution of Trump’s New York businesses—a decision that was stayed by the New York appellate court. Adding to the contentious nature of the case‚ New York Attorney General Letitia James has sought an increased amount of damages from the original $250 million to $370 million‚ despite there being no identifiable victim of the alleged fraud. James has also pursued a lifetime ban for Trump from the real estate industry‚ a move that many see as politically motivated rather than grounded in legal necessity. In defense of Trump’s financial practices‚ testimony from a Deutsche Bank executive revealed that adjusting asset values for high net-worth clients like Trump is “atypical‚ but not entirely unusual‚” suggesting that the lending practices under scrutiny are not uncommon for individuals of Trump’s profile. This perspective challenges the narrative of wrongdoing and raises questions about the standards being applied in this case. As the legal community and public await the written filing of the verdict‚ the delay has only intensified the debate over the legitimacy of the charges and the fairness of the trial. Trump himself has characterized the prosecution as “election interference at the highest level‚” reflecting the deep political divisions that continue to shadow legal proceedings involving the former president. With the eyes of the nation fixed on the outcome‚ the resolution of this case promises to have far-reaching implications for the political landscape and the rule of law.   The post Delay in Trump Civil Fraud Case Verdict Raises Questions appeared first on The Conservative Brief.

If you don’t know what sherpa is‚ it is a fluffy fleece. If you get the real stuff‚ it is not machine washable. Why any parent in their right mind would buy clothing for a child that was dry-clean only is beyond my ability to comprehend. But it happens. Some kid sherpa jackets have the fluffy sherpa on the inside and a sturdier material on the outside. Bri‚ the mom who posted today’s clip‚ bought the fancy one with the fluff on the outside. Honestly‚ her TikTok profile says she is a girl mom times four. She should have known better. To offer some perspective‚ the jacket probably looked something like this kid sherpa jacket from Amazon when they left their house. Image from Amazon. It was going to be a grand day at the playground. Bri’s toddler was dressed warm enough to play outside. She was styling in her kid sherpa jacket‚ black and white fleece leggings‚ and the most adorable boots! Kids have a mind of their own‚ though. When Bri’s daughter took off to play‚ she appeared to have changed outfits at some point. Gone was the cute cream-colored kid sherpa jacket. Her daughter came back wearing a one-of-a-kind camouflage coat with a huge smile and rosy cheeks to match! Image from TikTok. On closer examination‚ Bri realized that her daughter was still wearing the same kid sherpa jacket. She just made some design changes‚ transforming the coat into a camouflage version. What Really Happened To The Kid Sherpa Jacket? Apparently‚ sherpa is a leaf magnet. Who knew? Bri’s daughter seemed to be wearing every stray leaf in the park. Would that be considered woodland camouflage or perhaps mossy oak? Bri’s video contained the following Public Service Announcement (PSA) to warn other unsuspecting moms. Image from TikTok. Bri should consider sending an invoice to the local municipality. They should pay her daughter for the leaf pick-up duty she performed. If you enjoyed this tale of a mother’s woes‚ please share Bri’s grief. She mentioned in the caption that the cleanup was insane‚ so hopefully‚ she is smiling with us. @theogtwinmom yall‚ the clean up was insane #momsoftiktok #momtok #fyp #fypã‚· #foryou #foryoupage #trending #sahm #lol #funny #momlife #toddlersoftiktok ♬ Just A Girl – No Doubt You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
