Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a likely opponent of Trump's for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said his state will not assist in an extradition request if one is made for the former president.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Donald Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, prosecutors and defense lawyers said Thursday, making him the first former U.S. president to face a criminal charge.

The charges remained under seal late Thursday, but the investigation centered on payments made during the 2016 presidential campaign to silence claims of an extramarital sexual encounter.  Prosecutors said they were working to coordinate Trump's surrender, which could happen early next week.  They did not say whether they intended to seek prison time in the event of a conviction.
