The judge has not placed a gag order on Donald Trump but warned him that the issue would be revisited if the former US President continued with his heated rhetoric about the case, BBC reported. A gag order would have prohibited Trump, his attorneys, other parties and witnesses from speaking about the case publicly.
The indictment against Trump has been unsealed and made public, CNN reported. Prosecutors alleged Trump was part of an unlawful plan to suppress negative information, including an illegal payment of $130,000 that was ordered by the defendant to suppress the negative information that would hurt his campaign. The reason he committed the crime of falsifying business records was in part to "promote his candidacy", the indictment alleges.
The White House said Trump's arraignment was not the focus of President Joe Biden. "President is going to focus on American people like he does everyday. This isn't something that is a focus for him. He's going to focus on things like making sure we continue to lower prices for American people," the White House press secretary said.
Donald Trump has left the courtroom in Manhattan, BBC reported. He is now expected to head back to his home in Florida.
The case pertains to hush money payments to a porn star, Stormy Daniels, 44, who has said she had a sexual relationship with him. Trump has denied the affair.
The investigation by the Manhattan district attorney’s office began when Trump was still in the White House and relates to a USD 130,000 payment made by his then-personal attorney Michael Cohen to Daniels in late October 2016, days before the presidential election, to silence her from going public about an alleged affair with Trump a decade earlier.
Trump also faces more than 30 counts related to business fraud in the indictment.
This is for the first time that a former US president has been under arrest and arranged for criminal charges. After his court appearance, Donald Trump will fly back to Florida where he is expected to deliver remarks at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach in the evening.
