During the trial, Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger attempted to question Stormy Daniels about her memory, prompting an objection from Trump attorney Susan Necheles. This led to the judge calling both attorneys to the bench for a discussion.
Hoffinger's line of questioning involved asking Daniels if there were details she recalled later about the encounter in question. This attempt to delve into Daniels' memory sparked a legal back-and-forth between the prosecution and defense teams.
