Jury Deliberates in Trump Hush Money Trial

TL;DR
The first day of jury deliberations in former President Donald Trump's criminal trial in Manhattan ended without a verdict. Judge Merchan provided detailed jury instructions, emphasizing the need to set aside biases and focus on the evidence. The jury requested to review specific testimonies and the judge's instructions, which will be addressed when court reconvenes. Trump's defense argued against the credibility of key witness Michael Cohen, while the prosecution focused on the alleged falsification of business records to cover up a hush money payment.
