Judge Juan Merchan has made a significant ruling in the trial involving former President Donald Trump and his former lawyer Michael Cohen. The judge stated that the jury cannot convict Trump based solely on the testimony of Michael Cohen, as Cohen is considered an accomplice under the law.
During the trial proceedings, Judge Merchan emphasized the importance of corroborating Cohen's testimony with other evidence before reaching a verdict. He highlighted that even if the jury finds Cohen's testimony to be credible, they must have additional evidence to support their decision to convict the defendant.
