suspended unconditional discharge.

Is that another way of saying hanging?

Boom boom.

The whole situation is akin to being pulled over for a number plate light and getting charged with, and convicted for, death by dangerous driving because the brother of the girl you dumped when you were 9 was the person at the CPS that did your paperwork and whom the judge owed a favour to.

Said judge finds you guilty, because he's told to,.and then gives you a £0 fine and two days in prison offset by the two days you went to court because he knows the whole thing is total horseshit.

Unconditional discharge as a sentence means the prosecution couldn't prove their case, (because they didn't have one), and the defence couldn't prove innocence beyond reasonable doubt, (probably because they didn't have a legitimate case to defend).

You are talking crap (again....). I suggest you check on what the 'unconditional discharge' actually means - in the US in particular, especially as you seem to try and portray you are the fount of all knowledge....

I looked it up to save others the bother,    and yes, it was relative to the Trump case. 

What is an “unconditional discharge”?

An unconditional discharge means “the case is over, the conviction stands, and no further conditions attach,” a U.S. attorney and law professor at the University of Michigan said. “That means no prison time, no fine, no community service, no probation, no nothing.”

If you think that’s wrong, message the US Attorney, not me.

According to New York law, a court "may impose a sentence of unconditional discharge … if the court, having regard to the nature and circumstances of the offense and to the history, character and condition of the defendant, is of the opinion that neither the public interest nor the ends of justice would be served by a sentence of imprisonment and that probation supervision is not appropriate."

A unconditional discharge as a sentence is NOT that the prosection could not prove their case as DG stated...as he had already been convicted!

It's all academic, but the fact is he was tried and convicted. He is a felon, but I doubt it will matter one iota to anyone.

Look we all know they’re all full of shit liars, that’s their good points, why the fk isn’t there someone around the age of 50 to sort  this idiotic crap out FFS,  fair play they have a population of over 360,000 people. It’s money, and corruption of course 👍 what else could it be? Answers on a postcard please🤣

The point I was making all along was that it was a punishment in name only. If it were a legitimate prosecution to begin with then it would have had an actual punishment not a hypothetical one.

And to Steve's point, if it mattered to anyone, he wouldn't have been elected. So yes it's a moot point but if this sentence was always going to be the outcome, they may as well have not bothered in the first place.

Yes indeed I agree, Trump was never going to be jailed, and they all fk knew it. It’s all part of the game😵‍💫🗿
