A full jury has been selected for Donald Trump’s hush money trial, even though the case suffered an initial setback when one juror was dismissed over fears she might be identified and another was removed amid suspicions of cheating. to court.

After being plunged into chaos on Thursday morning (local time), a panel of 12 New Yorkers was finally selected shortly after 4:30 p.m., marking a crucial moment in the first trial of a US president.

Unless further setbacks arise, the group will now be tasked with deciding whether Trump is guilty of falsifying business records before the 2016 election to cover up an affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels.

The affair took place in 2006, shortly after his wife Melania gave birth to their son. But it presented a political threat 10 years later, when Daniels tried to sell the story while Trump was running for president against Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
