Court proceedings today unveiled crucial testimony from David Pecker regarding a phone call with former President Trump. The transcript highlighted questions about Trump's awareness of an alleged affair with Karen McDougal, a former Playboy model.
Pecker recalled Trump mentioning a conversation with Michael, indicating a level of involvement in the situation. Trump's characterization of McDougal as a 'nice girl' was also noted in the testimony.
During the reading of the exchange, the court reporters ensured jurors were aware of the speaker at the beginning of each passage. The third passage, involving cross-examination by Trump's lawyer Emil Bove, was particularly significant in the proceedings.
As the reporters concluded the reading of the exchange, Trump was observed leaning over to confer with Bove, suggesting a strategic response to the unfolding testimony.
