A New York judge has issued a protective order to shield the identities of jurors in Donald Trump's upcoming criminal trial for alleged business records fraud, citing concerns of possible harassment or tampering. The Manhattan district attorney's office requested the order, citing threats received by prosecutors and judges from Trump supporters.
