Judge denies Trump mistrial over 'prejudicial' Stormy Daniels' testimony

Raw Story  

New York Justice Juan Merchan denied a motion for a mistrial in Donald Trump's hush money case. Todd Blanche, an attorney for Trump, argued in the filing that Tuesday morning's testimony from adult film star Stormy Daniels was too salacious for the jury to hear. That testimony was so unduly prejudicial to Trump," Blanche wrote, "and the charges in this case and the testimony about the incident in 2006 is way different from the stories she was pedaling in 2016." The attorney said, "estimony about being blacked out, not wearing a condom, the spacing in the room, the power dynamic" had nothing to do with the case.
