A former President of the United States, Donald Trump on Tuesday turned himself in for a historic New York court hearing held amid tight security and a global media frenzy.
The Republican billionaire becomes the first American president in history to face criminal charges.
A grand jury in Manhattan voted Thursday to indict Donald Trump — the first time a former U.S. president has faced criminal charges.
The indictment comes in a case centered on a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the closing days of the 2016 presidential campaign.
Daniels claimed she slept with the married Trump in 2006, a claim the former president has denied. Trump had classified his reimbursement of the payout as a legal expense.
