Political Update: Donald Trump's historic criminal trial in New York
Show Notes

On Monday, April 15, 2024, the first criminal trial of an ex-president in American history will begin. 

Former President Donald Trump is accused of falsifying his company’s records to hide the nature of payments to his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen, who helped Trump bury negative stories during his 2016 campaign. Cohen’s activities included paying porn actor Stormy Daniels $130,000 to suppress her claims of an extramarital sexual encounter with Trump years earlier.

Emory University associate professor of law Andrew Jennings talks with digital producer Tim Darnell about what to expect in these historic judicial and political proceedings.
