DA'S damning Trump dossier: Ex-President is accused of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments and kill three salacious stories - including one about fathering a MYSTERY CHILD

The full indictment against Donald Trump and an accompanying 13-page statement of facts laying out the charges against him has been unsealed following his historic court appearance and lays bare why prosecutors think he broke the law.
Trump has been charged with 34, felony E counts of falsifying business records by allegedly misclassifying payments to his attorney, Michael Cohen, as being for legal services when they were in fact reimbursements for hush money bills.
He appeared before a judge in Manhattan today where he pleaded not guilty on all counts, before returning to Mar-a-Lago. His next court appearance is in December.
For weeks, there has been rampant speculation over the indictment and what it might contain. Contrary to what was expected, it is not just the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels that Trump is now facing charges over.
The statement of facts also describes his 'catch and kill' scheme with former National Enquirer owner David Pecker, whereby his team of journalists and editors bought up unflattering stories about Trump to stop other outlets publishing them, before the 2016 election.
Three payments are described; the $130,000 to Stormy Daniels, another of $150,000 to a second woman believed to be Karen McDougal, and $30,000 to a Trump Tower doorman who said he wanted to go public with a story claiming he had a love child.
The first scandal that Trump wanted to cover up was in October 2015 when Dino Sajudin, a doorman at Trump Tower, tried to sell a story to the press. He claimed Trump had a child out of wedlock, and that he could prove it through his access to the family.

I don't care who President Trump allegedly screwed. He was a good President. When will Hillary, Bill, Hunter and Joe be indicted and where is your blog on that question?
