Donald Trump has become the first former US president to be convicted of a crime.
The former US president's charges are in connection to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels in the final weeks of the 2016 election.
He was found guilty of 34 felony charges but will appeal the outcome.
US Correspondent Katherine Firkin told Kerre Woodham that now that the verdict has been reached, Trump will try to turn it around and turn himself into a martyr.
She said that there’s already Trump supporters who support him no matter what, and there are already people saying that the trial is a political witch hunt, and he’s a victim for the cause.
