Trump subpoenaed to testify for allegedly ‘paying hush’ to adult film star

Trump’s attorney, Joseph Tacopina, confirmed to the AP that the Manhattan district attorney’s office has subpoenaed his client to testify before a grand jury next week in the investigation in question.

“IT’S NOT FAIR”

Tacopina argued that it was an unprecedented pointless investigation: “This is another example of how they arm the justice system against you, and it is not fair at all.” she shared her statement.

Assessing the prosecution’s investigation as “making noise about something that doesn’t exist”, Tacopina claimed that the case had no legal basis or support.

“CORRUPTIONAL, IMMEDIATE…”

Trump, using descriptions of the investigation as a “corrupt, immoral and armed justice system” on his social media account, said: “I did absolutely nothing wrong.” he shared his statement.

Announcing his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election, Trump slammed the investigation as “a political witch hunt trying to unseat the leading candidate in the Republican Party.”

YOUR SHARE PAYMENT EVENT

Adult film star Stormy Daniels claimed she signed an agreement in 2016 for a payment of $130,000 to keep quiet about her alleged sexual relationship with Trump, but argued that the agreement was invalid because it was not signed by Trump.

While Trump denied Daniels’ allegations, Michael Cohen, who served as Trump’s attorney prior to the 2016 election campaign, confirmed that he had paid Daniels $130,000 from his own account on Trump’s behalf.

Cohen argued that Trump’s companies then paid him around $420,000, along with bonuses.

SENT TO 3 YEARS IN PRISON

Arrested in December 2018 on charges of “lying” and “tax evasion” in the investigation into Trump’s election campaign, Cohen was sentenced to 3 years in prison in court and sent to federal prison in Otisville in May 2019. to serve his sentence.

In those years, federal prosecutors did not need to launch any investigation against Trump, while the Manhattan district attorney’s office launched the investigative dossier known as the “hush payment.” (AA)
