It took a jury two days to find former president Donald Trump guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree, proving that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's somewhat risky approach to prosecuting the hush money case was a sound choice.

While at the SDNY, his case focus was on fraud and money laundering cases, as well as public corruption.
