Defiant Trump pleads not guilty to 34 felony counts FMTNews FMTWorld
Former president Donald Trump denies all charges and claims he is the victim of ‘political persecution’.
Trump denied all the charges, which related to payments to keep people quiet including over an alleged affair with an adult film actress, and was released from custody without any restrictions. “We today uphold our solemn responsibility to ensure that everyone stands equal before the law,” Bragg told reporters.
In a spectacle that played out on live television – with rival protesters rallying outside – the hearing marked a watershed moment for the US criminal and political system. But the former president was believed to have undergone the standard booking procedure of being fingerprinted. Trump for years rejoiced in his reputation as a playboy but, running as the candidate of social conservatives, denied the affair with Daniels which would have occurred just after his third wife Melania gave birth.
