Former President Donald Trump sits in Manhattan Criminal Court in New York, Wednesday, May 29, 2024. NEW YORK — The jury weighing former President Donald Trump’s fate in his hush money trial asked the court Wednesday to read back testimony from tabloid executive David Pecker and former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen about a key meeting at Trump Tower in August 2015.
A bell buzzed in the courtroom, signaling the jury needed something and prompting state Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan to read the four-part request from the jury aloud. It is not clear why the jury wanted to hear the testimony again, but it could signal the panel is taking a deep dive into the evidence instead of reaching a snap decision.
They said the strategy resulted in payoffs to people within unflattering stories about Mr. Trump as the 2016 election neared, including $130,000 to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. The indictment accuses Mr. Trump of illegally concealing the payment through reimbursement checks to Mr. Cohen that were logged as legal expenses.
