Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.
- Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.
- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

Quick Glance: Weisselberg sentenced to 5 months jail in Trump civil fraud case
- Retired Trump executive Allen Weisselberg was sentenced to five months in jail for admitting to lying under oath in a civil fraud lawsuit against the former president by New York’s attorney general.
- Weisselberg pleaded guilty to perjury related to the valuation of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, despite his deep loyalty to Trump and previous jail time for tax evasion.
- Important aspects include Weisselberg's testimonies in unfavorable trials for Trump and his decision not to testify in Trump's upcoming hush money criminal trial.
- Weisselberg's willingness to admit wrongdoing, age, and his role in Trump's organization were considered in his sentence, mirroring a previous case where he served a reduced jail term. He is likely to be involved in Trump's hush money trial, even if not as a witness.
