Trump indicted over hush money payments in Stormy Daniels probe
The indictment against the twice-impeached Mr Trump makes him the first former US president to face criminal charges
Donald Trump has been indicted by a New York City grand jury on charges of falsifying business records stemming from payments he made to adult film star Stormy Daniels to prevent her from revealing an affair he had with her before the 2016 election.
A source told The Independent that grand jurors voted to indict the ex-president on Thursday, and that indictment is currently under seal. It will be unveiled at some point in the near future by District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
The twice-impeached former president had signaled that he could face arrest by Mr Bragg’s office, which was still in the process of presenting evidence to a grand jury as recently as Monday. He previously said in a post on his Truth Social website that he had expected to be arrested on 20 March, but that date came and went without an indictment being handed down from the grand jury.
