After four days of jury selection and 15 days of testimony from 20 witnesses, Manhattan prosecutors have rested their case in the People of New York vs Donald J Trump.
The prosecution’s case culminated with former attorney Michael Cohen’s four-day testimony, alleging that Mr Trump personally directed his “fixer” to pay hush money to an adult film star to block politically compromising stories of his affairs from reaching voters in the fragile weeks before the 2016 election.
