Donald Trump’s arraignment at the Manhattan Criminal Court was history — both for him and the country.
Never before has a former president been indicted.

Outside the court, throngs of journalists and television cameras crowded together, alongside competing protests in favour and against the indictment.
The journalists outnumbered the protesters 10 -1.
The Independent’s Richard Hall was along for the ride, amid the chaos as the day unfolded.
