Donald Trump said Sunday he would accept home confinement or prison time after his historic conviction on criminal charges by a New York jury last week but that it would be tough for the public to accept.
Trump is scheduled to be sentenced on July 11, four days before Republicans gather to formally choose their presidential nominee to face Democratic President Joe Biden in November's election.
Prison time is rare for people convicted in New York state of felony falsification of business records, the charge Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, faced at his trial. The maximum sentence for such a charge is four years imprisonment.
