Original Note:
Under New York state law a person is considered convicted when they are found guilty, not when they are sentenced. Trump was found guilty of state-level felonies in New York so it is fair to call him a convicted felon. https://www.nyc.gov/site/nypd/services/victim-services/glossary.page#conviction https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-31/donald-trump-hush-money-trial-verdict/103910472
