Alvin Bragg Reveals Trial Plan Against Donald Trump
Quick Glance: Trump Faces Landmark Trial Over Hush Money Case
  • Donald Trump will go down in history as the first former president to stand trial in Manhattan on criminal charges. The historic case revolves around a potential sex scandal cover-up just days before the 2016 elections.

  • The prosecution alleges that Trump falsified business records to hide hush money payments aimed at influencing the election outcome. Trump maintains his innocence and refutes any involvement with Stormy Daniels.

  • The trial will feature key witnesses from Trump's inner circle testifying against him, including Michael Cohen and David Pecker. It will delve into the Oval Office, where Trump allegedly approved the cover-up.

  • Prosecutors must prove that Trump falsified business records with intent to commit or conceal another crime. Trump's defense is likely to focus on the legality of the hush money payments and attempt to distance him from the accounting handled by his employees.

Quick Glance: Weisselberg sentenced to 5 months jail in Trump civil fraud case
  • Retired Trump executive Allen Weisselberg was sentenced to five months in jail for admitting to lying under oath in a civil fraud lawsuit against the former president by New York’s attorney general.

  • Weisselberg pleaded guilty to perjury related to the valuation of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, despite his deep loyalty to Trump and previous jail time for tax evasion.

  • Important aspects include Weisselberg's testimonies in unfavorable trials for Trump and his decision not to testify in Trump's upcoming hush money criminal trial.

  • Weisselberg's willingness to admit wrongdoing, age, and his role in Trump's organization were considered in his sentence, mirroring a previous case where he served a reduced jail term. He is likely to be involved in Trump's hush money trial, even if not as a witness.

Quick Glance: New York Demands Further Details on Trump's $175 Million Appeal Bond in Civil Fraud Case
  • Following former President Donald Trump's posting of a $175 million bond, state attorneys are requesting more information about the bond's legitimacy.

  • State Attorney General Letitia James' office has given Trump's lawyers or the bond underwriter a 10-day period to justify the bond, potentially requiring more disclosure about the collateral provided by Trump.

  • A hearing has been scheduled for April 22 after an appeals court significantly reduced the bond amount needed, leading to calls from Trump's lawyer for a baseless public quarrel.

  • The underwriter, Knight Specialty Insurance Co., has been contacted for comment, but there has been no response so far.

Quick Glance: Trump's $175M Bond and Property Seizure Case Overview
  • Former President Trump has secured a $175 million bond in his civil fraud case, keeping his most prized properties from being seized - at least temporarily.

  • Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump, his company, and top executives liable for fraud, ordering them to pay a penalty of $464 million plus interest, with Trump alone owing $454 million.

  • Despite the temporary halt, Trump still owes the state $454 million from the judgment, which increases daily, potentially leading him back into financial jeopardy.

  • An appeal could result in a significant financial setback for Trump, challenging the monumental fine and other penalties imposed in the case.

Quick Glance: Trump's Sex Life Unveiled as Hush Money Trial Begins
  • The opening day of Donald Trump’s criminal trial delved deep into his tabloid-fodder sex life, as lawyers and the judge debated how many salacious details jurors should eventually hear as they decide whether he broke the law to cover up hush money payments.

  • The historic first trial of a former U.S. president began Monday in a storied courthouse that has seen a host of high-profile cases over the years, from rap stars to movie moguls, but never one with such potential consequences for the nation and the world.

  • Despite Trump's open contempt for the trial, he was not disruptive in court but rather disinterested. However, Trump's lawyers managed to prevent jurors from being informed about specific allegations of sexual misconduct from 2016.

  • Prosecutors plan to highlight Trump's relationship with adult-film actress Stormy Daniels and other women in court to show that he paid hush money to protect his political image.
