The prosecution in the hush money trial against Donald Trump is focusing on proving intent through various documents to build their case before the jury and judge. With 34 business records counts at play, prosecutors are honing in on specific elements to establish their argument.
One key aspect that the prosecution will need to demonstrate is the intent to defraud, along with the intent to commit another crime. Additionally, they will need to show evidence of aiding in concealing the commission of the crime and making false entries in business records. This includes proving that an illegal retainer was created, which in reality did not exist.
