Similar Stories to Trump Indictment And Hush Money Investigation, Explained on Bing News

By ALANNA DURKIN RICHER and MEG KINNARD (Associated Press) Donald Trump has become the first former president to be indicted in a criminal case after a grand jury investigation into hush money payments made on his behalf during the 2016 presidential campaign. The unprecedented indictment comes as the Republican faces other legal investigations and launches a bid to return to the White House in 2024. The indictment will test the Republican Party already divided over whether to support Trump next year, in part due to his efforts to undermine his 2020 election loss. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and accuses prosecutors of engaging in a politically motivated “witch hunt” to damage his campaign. Here’s a look at the hush money case, the grand jury investigation and possible ramifications for Trump’s presidential campaign: WHAT’S THIS CASE ABOUT? The grand jury spent weeks meeting in secret to probe Trump’s involvement in a $130,000 payment made in 2016 to the porn actor Stormy Daniels to keep her from going public about a sexual encounter she said she had with him years earlier.
