Trump will not accept an invitation to appear before a grand jury investigating a «hush money» payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.
Former President Donald Trump will not accept an invitation to appear before a Manhattan grand jury investigating a «hush money» payment allegedly made on his behalf days before the 2016 election.
Trump was informed of his right to appear before the grand jury last week, but has decided against taking Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg up on the offer.
«He won’t be participating in that proceeding — a proceeding that we and most election law experts believe is with absolutely no legal merit,» .
The potential case was described by former Manhattan prosecutor Mark Pomerantz in his recent memoir as «novel» and untested.
