Judge Juan Merchan has made a decision to allow the testimony of Karen McDougal in an ongoing trial. However, he has stated that it is not necessary for the jury to hear specific details regarding Donald Trump's affair with McDougal during his wife Melania Trump's pregnancy and after she gave birth.
During the proceedings, Judge Merchan emphasized that the potential prejudicial impact of this information outweighs its probative value at this time. This decision comes after the judge had previously allowed certain testimonies through 'motions in limine,' with the extent of their admissibility to be determined later in the trial.
