Former President Donald Trump entered a not guilty plea for 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to hush-money payments to women with whom he had affairs prior to his 2016 election to the White House in a highly-anticipated arraignment in Manhattan.
Trump, the first former president in United States history to be indicted on criminal charges, was released on his own recognizance and left a state Supreme Court building in Lower Manhattan by a 10-car motorcade and without incident.
