World News | Trump Arrives at Court for the Start of Jury Selection in His Historic Hush Money Trial

New York, Apr 15 (AP) Donald Trump arrived Monday at a New York court for the start of jury selection in his hush money trial, marking a singular moment in US history.

It's the first criminal trial of any former US commander-in-chief and the first of Trump's four indictments to go to trial. Because he is also the presumptive nominee for this year's Republican ticket, the trial will produce the head-spinning split-screen of a presidential candidate spending his days in court and, he has said, “campaigning during the night.”

There could be some legal arguments and housekeeping before jury selection begins. When it does, scores of people are due to be called into the courtroom to start the process of finding 12 jurors, plus six alternates. (AP)
