Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg asked a trial court in New York to postpone the criminal trial of former President Donald Trump by 30 days. Trump faces prosecution for allegedly falsifying business records.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office, which accused Mr. Trump of covering up a sex scandal during and after the 2016 presidential campaign, said the delay would give Mr. Trump’s lawyers time to review a new batch of records. The office sought the records more than a year ago, but only recently received them from federal prosecutors, who years ago investigated the hush-money payments at the center of the case.

Trump is not accused of “covering up a sex scandal,” but rather of falsifying business records of payments made to Stormy Daniels as part of a non-disclusure agreement prior to the 2016 presidential election. However, the postponement could also hurt Trump, moving the trial date closer to the presidential election and shortening the window for appeal.Breitbart News Sunday
