Jury selection in Trump hush money trial enters final stretch ...
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.

All the Key Players in the Trump Trial
Quick Glance: Trump Faces Landmark Trial Over Hush Money Case
  • Donald Trump will go down in history as the first former president to stand trial in Manhattan on criminal charges. The historic case revolves around a potential sex scandal cover-up just days before the 2016 elections.

  • The prosecution alleges that Trump falsified business records to hide hush money payments aimed at influencing the election outcome. Trump maintains his innocence and refutes any involvement with Stormy Daniels.

  • The trial will feature key witnesses from Trump's inner circle testifying against him, including Michael Cohen and David Pecker. It will delve into the Oval Office, where Trump allegedly approved the cover-up.

  • Prosecutors must prove that Trump falsified business records with intent to commit or conceal another crime. Trump's defense is likely to focus on the legality of the hush money payments and attempt to distance him from the accounting handled by his employees.

Quick Glance: Manhattan DA Proposes Delay in Trump Hush Money Trial
  • Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has surprisingly suggested a one-month delay in the trial of Donald Trump scheduled for March 25, marking an unexpected turn in what is anticipated to be the first criminal trial of a former president.

  • In a court notice on Thursday, Bragg’s office disclosed they had just received “approximately 31,000” additional pages of records from federal prosecutors in New York, who previously investigated the 2016 hush money payments forming the basis of the district attorney’s charges against Trump.

  • Following Trump’s departure from a federal court hearing in Fort Pierce, Fla., where his attorneys evidently faced challenges convincing a judge to dismiss a separate set of criminal charges alleging mishandling of classified papers and hindering government efforts to recover them, the latest legal twist in the case unfolded.

  • There was no sign of Melania or Ivanka Trump.
