today8 May, 2024

Background

The judge in Donald Trump’s hush money case has refused his request for a mistrial, after explicit testimony from adult film star Stormy Daniels. His defense lawyers said her details of the alleged sexual encounter with the former president were “extremely prejudicial”, and requested the trial be disbanded. Sally Patterson reports from outside the courthouse in New York City.
