Live updates: Donald Trump arraigned Tuesday in hush money payments case

Former President Donald Trump has been processed and arraigned in New York after a grand jury voted to indict him last week.

At 3:30 p.m. ET, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will hold a press conference about the charges. 

The charges are related to payments Trump made in 2016 to his former attorney over an alleged affair with an adult film star known as Stormy Daniels. Trump denies the affair but has admitted to reimbursing his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a $130,000 payment made on the eve of the 2016 election to Daniels as part of a settlement about her alleged 2006 sexual encounter with Trump.
