  • 2 Jurors Dismissed in Trump Hush Money Trial as Prosecutors Ask for Trump to Face Contempt
    Time, Thursday - 04/18/2024 - 10:06 AM

    NEW YORK — Two jurors in former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial were dismissed Thursday, one after expressing doubt about her ability to be fair and impartial and the other over concerns that some of his answers in court may not have been accurate. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] The dismissals reduced to five the number of jurors who have been seated for the first-ever criminal trial of a former president. The setbacks in the selection process emerged during a frenetic morning in which prosecutors also asked for Trump to held in contempt over a series of social media posts this week, while the judge in the case barred reporters from identifying jurors’ employers after expressing privacy concerns. The seating of the full jury — whenever it comes — will be a seminal moment in the case, setting the stage for a trial that will place the former president’s legal jeopardy at the heart of the campaign against Democrat Joe Biden and for weeks of testimony about Trump’s private life before he became president. The jury selection process picked up momentum Tuesday with the selection of seven jurors.
