The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial released hundreds of transcripts detailing the bigoted and vulgar threats directed at him and his court staff in the aftermath of the former president's targeted social media attacks.
Judge Arthur Engoron is seeking the reinstatement of two gag orders that would bar Trump and other parties from publicly attacking his staff. The judge had previously asserted that his office faced an influx of "hundreds of harassing" messages following Trump's social media attacks on his chief law clerk, which initially led to the imposition of the gag orders.
