Former newspaper publisher testifies in Trump indictment hearing for second time: Report

The former publisher of the National Enquirer testified in front of the grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump for the second time in New York on Monday, according to a news report.

David Pecker, who already gave a grand jury testimony in January, was crucial to Trump’s alleged hush-money incident with porn star Stormy Daniels.

The cost between Daniels and Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney, is said to have been facilitated by Pecker and the editor of the newspaper.

At least nine witnesses have already testified before the grand jury, which may decide on an accusation this year. On Wednesday, the jurors is scheduled to meet.

Trump predicted that he would be charged with a violence next week, making him the second former president to do so. At least 16 of the control panel 23 members may be present for the judge to cast a vote.

Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney, is in charge of the way. He recently indicated that the prosecution might be forthcoming by giving Trump the opportunity to show before the grand judge before it is approved. The New York Times reported that Trump turned down the offer.

The investigation is concentrated on a$ 130,000 transactions that Cohen received from the former senator in 2016. Daniels, who had charged Trump with having an affair with her, received the payment in the end. How Trump accounted for the cost in market information, including whether he falsified the records and whether it constituted a contravention of campaign finance laws, would be the basis for any criminal charges Trump might be charged with.

Trump’s defense team has refuted all charges, and his allies and advisers have noted that Cohen, a key see for Bragg, frequently voiced concerns against the previous leader.
