‘We have a jury’
Twelve New Yorkers have been selected to decide Trump’s guilt or innocence in hush money charges from Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s prosecution.
The third day of jury selection (the court is not in session on Wednesdays) started with seven seated jurors. That fell five after one juror admitted that, upon further consideration, she could not be impartial and another was dismissed after it was discovered he was once arrested for ripping down right-leaning political posters.
But the court still needs to find several alternate jurors, a process that will resume on Friday.
