Donald Trump's fate currently rests in the hands of 12 New York City jurors as they deliberate in a Manhattan courthouse. The jurors requested a portion of Judge Juan Marchand's instructions to be read back to them, and they also heard testimony from David Pecker and Michael Cohen about a 2015 meeting at Trump Tower where Trump allegedly discussed handling potential salacious stories.
Will Scharf, a Trump attorney present in the courtroom, noted that the jury's focus on evidentiary inferences and requests to revisit specific testimonies may indicate skepticism towards Michael Cohen's credibility. Scharf expressed optimism about the jury's diligence in considering the law and evidence, suggesting a potential acquittal.
