The unsealed 13-page statement of facts that accompanies the indictment against Donald Trump describes how Trump allegedly falsified business records to cover up three unsavory stories in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election.
Trump has been charged with 34, felony E counts of falsifying business records for The Trump Organization.
According to the statement of facts that was unsealed today, Trump falsely listed payments to Michael Cohen, his attorney at time, as being for ‘legal services’, and also
The payments were to cover up three scandals – a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels, another of $150,000 to a second woman who said she’d slept with him, and a third of $30,000 to a Trump Tower doorman who said Trump had a love child.
Trump today pleaded not guilty to all 34 counts. He will return to court in December.
Neither the indictment nor the statement of facts describes precisely how Trump allegedly falsified documents himself.
The 34 counts all apply to alleged offenses in 2017, after Trump took office.
