The "other crime" does not have to be in the indictment or even established by the Prosecution.

During the election, TRUMP and others employed a "catch and kill" scheme to identify, purchase, and bury negative information about him and boost his electoral prospects. TRUMP then went to great lengths to hide this conduct, causing dozens of false entries in business records to conceal criminal activity, including attempts to violate state and federal election laws.

First is it illegal to do a "catch and kill"?
Apparently not.
If not then how are there are false entries?
Where should the entries have been made to be legal?
Have other politicians, like Hillary been charged the same charges?
Seems very similar below? What's the difference in you expert opinion?
Washington CNN "
Federal election regulators fined Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee earlier this month for not properly disclosing the money they spent on controversial opposition research that led to the infamous Trump-Russia dossier.

How could Trump do this legally? Why didn't Hillary do the same?
If in campaign ledger it would be illegal according to FEC? It might, since it's not using campaign funds for campaigns.
This really seems doubious to claim documents violations without articulating the actual crime attempted.
Otherwise how would one know where the legal entities would be for a legal activity?
