Trump indictment: A simple guide to what it means
特朗普将因“封口费”案被审判。
Former US President Donald Trump is beino
charged with a crime in relation to a payment he
made to a porn star.G
The man who spent four years in the White House will be fingerprintedcould be given a mugshot
photo and then brought before a judge on Tuesday This is happening as he campaigns to become president againin the 2024 election.
What is the latest news?
On Monday,Mr Trump travelled from his Florida home to New York City ahead of his arrest and
court appearance on Tuesday. A new lawyerTodc
Blancheis expected to join Mr Trump's legal team ahead of his arraignment.
The former president is expected to be released on bail by the court and will return to his Mar-a-Lago home on Tuesday evening before addressing supporters at 20:15 local time.
A jury in New York last week voted to indict Mr
Trumpwhich means they believed there was
enough evidence to bring criminal charges against
him.
We don't yet know what those charges arebut his lawyers have said he will plead not guilty But for weeks the jury has been hearing evidence about a payment made to buy the silence of a porn star called Stormy Daniels.It happened before the76-year-old was president,just prior to the 2016 election which he won against Hillary Clinton.
What is Trump accused of?
Stormy Daniels says she had an affair with Mr Trump in 2006, which he has always denied.
In 2016 she tried to sell her account of what
happened to the media.Mr Trump's lawyerMichael Cohen,paid her $130000(£105000) to keep quiet That kind of payment is called hush money
That is not illegal but what has got Mr Trump into trouble is how Mr Cohen's reimbursement was recorded in his accounts.He is accused of falsifying his business records by saying the
payment was for legal fees. G
As it happened just before Americans were due to vote, it may also violate laws about payments that help an election campaign.
There will now be a trial where Mr Trump will make his case,but we don't know when that will be.He
has denied any wrongdoing and says the charges are politically motivated.
Is Trump going to jail if found guilty? The most
likely outcome at the end of this legal processisa
fine but there is also a chance he could be sent to prison.
If any of the charges are serious-what in the Us is called a felony-then Mr Trump would face a
maximum of four years in prison.But legal experts
tell the BBC that time behind bars is unlikely
