Former US President Donald Trump leaves after speaking at a campaign rally in Waco, Texas, on Saturday, March 25. Trump, who is running for president again, railed against what he called "prosecutorial misconduct" and denied any wrongdoing amid investigations in New York, Georgia and Washington. On Thursday, a grand jury in Manhattan voted to indict Trump, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter. It's the first time in American history that a current or former president will face criminal charges. The Manhattan district attorney's office has been investigating Trump in connection with his alleged role in a hush money payment scheme and cover-up involving adult film star Stormy Daniels that dates to the 2016 presidential election. Trump released a statement in response to the indictment claiming it was "Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history."
