On April 4, Trump pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records related to his role in secret payments to two women made toward the end of the 2016 presidential campaign.

Bragg's office accused Trump of "repeatedly and fraudulently" falsifying records to hide information from voters that could be harmful to his election campaign.

Trump has denied the allegations, saying the only crime he committed was "fearlessly defending our nation from those who seek to destroy it."
