The trial of former President Donald Trump entered its final phase Tuesday as both the prosecution and defense presented their closing arguments. After six weeks of testimony from over 20 witnesses, the jury is set to deliberate on whether Trump is guilty of falsifying business records to conceal a $130,000 payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.
Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass defended the credibility of key witness Michael Cohen, asserting that Cohen's testimony was corroborated by text messages, emails, and phone records. Steinglass urged jurors to reject the defense's attacks on Cohen's character, emphasizing the consistency of his statements, ABC News reported.
