Manhattan prosecutors have charged former President Donald Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records related to hush money payments made during the 2016 presidential campaign to boost his election chances. The charges allege that Trump engaged in a "scheme" to conceal criminal conduct and violated election laws. Trump has denied all wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty to the charges. This makes him the first current or former U.S. president to be indicted for criminal conduct.
