The Impending Indictment of Trump: What Comes Next?
Preparations are being made for the possibility of former President Donald Trump becoming the first former president in US history to be indicted. Manhattan prosecutors are scrutinizing a $130,000 hush payment that Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney, made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. If indicted, Trump could face charges related to falsifying business records, but it would only amount to a misdemeanor. It is unclear whether Trump would surrender to authorities, but his attorney has said he won't refuse to surrender if indicted. Trump receives around-the-clock Secret Service protection, raising unique security issues surrounding any potential indictment.
