Donald Trump is the first former president in US history to face criminal charges.
A Manhattan grand jury has indicted Trump, his attorney Joe Tacopina confirmed to an insider.
His indictment will likely block his third run in the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
The indictment follows a year-long investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office into Trump’s business dealings and whether he violated New York state law when his attorney paid Stormy Daniels $130,000. rice field.
Daniels says she and Trump had an affair in the 2000s, and he and his attorney, Michael Cohen, paid her to remain silent during the 2016 campaign. Cohen said he struck a plea bargain with prosecutors and Trump authorized the payment.
Mr Trump has denied any previous affairs, said he had “absolutely done nothing wrong” and said the investigation was politically motivated.
