Trump will be first US ex-president on criminal trial. Here's what to know about hush money case

New Indian Express  

Prosecutors say Trump's company reimbursed Cohen and paid him bonuses and extra payments, all of which were falsely logged in Trump Organization records as legal expenses. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg did not specify the other crime in Trump’s indictment but has since said that evidence shows his actions were meant to conceal state and federal campaign finance and tax crimes. Among the questions potential jurors will be asked: Whether they follow the former president on social media, have ever worked for a Trump organization and have ever attended a Trump rally — or anti-Trump organizations or rallies and whether potential jurors are supporters or followers of far-right groups, such as the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, whose members were among the pro-Trump mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, or of the far-left-leaning collective known as antifa, which resists fascists and neo-Nazis, especially at demonstrations. Before testifying in front of the grand jury that brought the indictment last year, Cohen said his goal was “to tell the truth" and insisted he is not seeking revenge but said Trump "needs to be held accountable for his dirty deeds.” Cohen served prison time after pleading guilty in 2018 to federal charges, including campaign finance violations, for arranging the payouts to Daniels and McDougal.
