Trump's Lawyers Claim Juror Misconduct in Hush Money Conviction Appeal
President-elect Trump's legal team alleges grave juror misconduct in his criminal case, alleging violations of constitutional rights amid prosecutor rejections of evidence validity.
Overview
President-elect Donald Trump's attorneys have alleged serious juror misconduct in his conviction on 34 felony counts related to hush money payments. In a recently unsealed letter, they claim the jury was biased and argue for the case's dismissal, linking it to potential violations of Trump's constitutional rights. However, prosecutors dismissed these allegations as vague and based on hearsay, emphasizing the lack of concrete evidence. Judge Juan Merchan has stated that allegations of juror misconduct require sworn statements and cannot be investigated on mere conjecture, leaving Trump's legal team to formalize their claims for further action.
