Jury questions are currently underway in the courtroom. Donald Trump's attorney, Todd Blanche, and the prosecutors have both turned around in their chairs to observe the potential jurors. Meanwhile, Trump himself remains seated facing forward.
The process of selecting a jury is a crucial step in any trial, as the individuals chosen will ultimately determine the outcome of the case. Both the defense and the prosecution are carefully evaluating each potential juror to ensure a fair and impartial jury is selected.
During jury selection, attorneys on both sides typically ask a series of questions to the potential jurors in order to assess their suitability to serve on the jury. These questions may cover a range of topics, including the juror's background, beliefs, and any potential biases they may hold.
It is common for attorneys to closely observe the potential jurors during this process, as their reactions and responses can provide valuable insights into their attitudes and perspectives. By turning around in their chairs to face the potential jurors, both Todd Blanche and the prosecutors are able to better gauge their reactions and demeanor.
As the jury selection process continues, both the defense and the prosecution will work to select a jury that they believe will be fair and impartial. Once the jury is finalized, the trial will proceed with opening statements and the presentation of evidence.
Stay tuned for further updates as the trial progresses and the jury is selected.
