Barron Trump

Barron Trump, the youngest son of former US President Donald Trump, is currently newsworthy due to his involvement in a UK criminal case. At 19 years old, Trump was on a video call with a woman in London in January of last year when he witnessed her being assaulted. He contacted UK police from the US to report the incident. The trial of Matvei Rumiantsev, a 22-year-old Russian citizen, is ongoing, with details of Trump's call and his relationship to the alleged victim emerging in court. Trump described himself as "very close" to the woman. The court has heard that Trump's intervention may have saved the woman's life. The case highlights the potential for remote witnessing of crimes and the ability to alert authorities across international borders.
