Donald Trump's Hush Money Trial, Week 6: Live Updates

Former President Donald Trump’s criminal trial continues at the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse.

Trump faces 34 counts connected to his alleged attempts to hide $130,000 in hush money payments made in 2016 to adult film actor Stormy Daniels, in order to conceal the details of an extramarital affair. The jury spent last week listening to testimony from Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen.

The case was brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Judge Juan Merchan is on the bench presiding over the trial. Trump’s legal team includes Emil Bove, Todd Blanche and Susan Necheles. The prosecution includes Susan Hoffinger, Joshua Steinglass, Christopher Conroy and Matthew Colangelo.
