During the recent court proceedings involving Stormy Daniels and former President Donald Trump, Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass revealed that certain details were intentionally left out of Daniels' account. Steinglass mentioned that these details, which he described as 'very salacious,' could be disclosed in a sealed filing if necessary.
According to Steinglass, the prosecution made a conscious decision not to ask questions that would prompt Daniels to reveal these omitted details in order to avoid causing embarrassment to Trump. For instance, Steinglass pointed out that a question about whether Daniels 'felt anything different' during the alleged sexual encounter with Trump was met with an objection sustained by the judge.
Had Daniels been allowed to answer, Steinglass claims she would have testified that she felt the skin of a 60-year-old man, highlighting the age difference between herself, a 27-year-old woman at the time, and Trump. The prosecutor argued that this testimony would have supported Daniels' allegations against Trump.
In a summary statement, Steinglass asserted that the prosecution had diligently followed the court's rulings throughout the proceedings. The decision to withhold certain details from Daniels' testimony was a strategic choice aimed at maintaining decorum and respecting the court's directives.
