During the trial, Trump attorney Emil Bove took the podium to initiate the cross-examination of David Pecker, the first witness presented by the prosecution. As Bove began his questioning, Trump briefly turned his head to acknowledge the start of the cross-examination.
Cross-examination is a crucial part of the legal process where defense attorneys have the opportunity to question the credibility and accuracy of the prosecution's witnesses. The goal of cross-examination is often to challenge the witness's testimony and cast doubt on their statements.
