White Powder Sent to Judge in Trump Fraud Trial Triggers Security Scare

The substance, sent to Judge Arthur Engoron's courthouse, was found to be harmless; no injuries reported.

An envelope containing white powder was sent to Judge Arthur Engoron, who presided over Donald Trump's civil fraud trial, causing a security scare at the Manhattan courthouse.
Preliminary tests indicated the powder was harmless, and no injuries were reported. The courthouse remained open, and the incident is under investigation.
Judge Engoron and his staff were not exposed to the substance, as his mail is pre-screened. Two court staffers were temporarily isolated after exposure.
This incident follows a series of threats against Judge Engoron, including a bomb threat at his home and harassment of his law clerk, amid Trump's civil fraud trial.
The security scare comes weeks after Engoron ordered Trump to pay nearly $355 million in penalties, a decision Trump is appealing.
