Quick Glance: Self-Immolation at Trump Trial in New York
- During the significant legal proceedings against Donald Trump in New York, a man seemingly set himself on fire in front of the Manhattan courthouse on Friday. The incident occurred precisely at the moment when the jury composition was being established in the courtroom.
- This initial criminal case against a former US President revolves around an alleged hush money payment to former porn star Stormy Daniels, which Trump purportedly attempted to conceal through the manipulation of business records. The verdict is anticipated before the November presidential election, where Trump aims to run against Joe Biden.
- A pivotal aspect of the Trump trial is the selection of the jury to ensure impartiality. Despite expectations of a longer jury selection process, Judge Merchan is determined to expedite the proceedings.
