During the trial, a copy of the email sent to Hicks by a Washington Post reporter seeking comment on the 'Access Hollywood' tape has been accepted as evidence. The email, with the subject line 'URGENT WashPost query,' was forwarded by Hicks to others on the campaign. In the email dated October 7, 2016, the reporter expressed an 'extremely urgent request' for information.
The jury is currently viewing the email and its contents on monitors in the courtroom. This email exchange is a key piece of evidence in the trial, shedding light on the communication between Hicks and the media following the release of the controversial tape.
