New York grand jury hearing into Trump hush money case delayed

A New York grand jury hearing considering whether to approve charges against Donald Trump over a hush-money payment to a porn actress has been delayed.

The grand jury did not meet Wednesday as previously scheduled.

A Manhattan prosecutor may charge Mr. Trump over how he declared a payment to keep quiet about an alleged affair.

It would be the first criminal case brought against a former US president.

It is unclear why the grand jury was asked not to reconvene.

The grand jury is scheduled to meet again on Thursday, but law enforcement sources say that it is unlikely there will be a vote on whether to indict Mr. Trump by the end of the week.

Mr. Trump has vowed to continue his campaign to become the Republican nominee in the 2024 presidential election regardless of any possible indictment.
