New York (AFP) - More than 50 prospective jurors were excused from the landmark trial of former president Donald Trump on Monday after they said they would not be able to try him fairly and impartially. Ninety-six potential panelists were assembled in a New York court to be screened for their ability to fairly judge Trump, accused of covering up hush money payments to a porn star with whom he is alleged to have had an affair. One prospective juror, a woman with short hair, said "I just couldn't do it" as she left court, which was adjourned for the day and will resume Tuesday at 9:30 am (1330 G...

A death penalty recommendation needed to be unanimous and at least one or more of the 12 ju...

"The challenge is to find jurors who have not made up their mind, who have not prejudged the case," said David Schultz of the law school of Hamline University. The viral video of Flo...
