The Manhattan District Attorney's Office has indicted former President Donald Trump on an undisclosed charge related to a payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 presidential election. The indictment is the result of an investigation into a $130,000 payment made by Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen to Daniels, and the details of the charge or charges remain under seal with the court. Trump's attorneys are now coordinating with prosecutors for his surrender, and the legal battle between the two sides is expected to be lengthy.
Former President Donald Trump has released a statement after news outlets reported that a grand jury had voted to indict him on charges brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Trump has accused the indictment of being a politically motivated attempt to interfere with his re-election campaign and vowed to "defeat Alvin Bragg" and "throw every last one of these Crooked Democrats out of office." He also suggested that the indictment would backfire on Joe Biden. It is currently unclear what charges Trump is facing or what legal implications the indictment could have.
