Former President Donald Trump will make his first appearance in a Manhattan courtroom Tuesday afternoon on criminal charges tied to the Stormy Daniels hush-money payment — marking an unprecedent moment in US history.
Trump, 76, will face a historic booking and arraignment after he surrenders to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office downtown in the early afternoon.
He’ll be fingerprinted and likely have his mugshot taken before his scheduled 2:15 p.m. hearing in Manhattan Supreme Court, sources have said.
Trump became the first US president to be hit with criminal charges Thursday when a grand jury convened by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg voted to indict him in connection with a six-figure payment made to Daniels in the lead-up to the 2016 election.
