“Twelve New Yorkers have been selected to decide Donald Trump’s criminal trial in Manhattan, the first for a former American president and a crucial challenge to his bid to regain the Oval Office,” the New York Times reports.
“Seven new jurors were added in short order Thursday afternoon, hours after two others who had already been picked were abruptly excused. As many as six alternates were still being selected.”
“The judge overseeing the case, Juan M. Merchan, asked the selected jurors to return to court on Monday, saying he was hopeful opening statements would begin then.”
