Trump is the first former U.S. president to be indicted on criminal charges.
Trump's prosecution will be carried out by the Manhattan district attorney's office, which is currently run by Alvin Bragg; an official indictment is likely to be announced in the coming days, with Bragg's office asking Trump to surrender and face arraignment on charges that have yet to be announced.
While Trump will almost certainly be released upon arraignment and his criminal trial likely won't take place until 2024, falsifying business records in New York as part of an attempt to commit a crime carries with it a penalty of up to four years in prison.
