Jurors review testimony as they weigh verdict in Trump hush money trial

They also ask judge to repeat some of his guidance for considering evidence given

- 

NEW YORK Jurors asked the judge overseeing Donald Trump's hush money trial on May 30 to review testimony from prominent witnesses, to help them reach a verdict in the first criminal trial of a former US president.

Jurors also asked Justice Juan Merchan to repeat some of his guidance for considering the evidence presented at trial as they began their second day of deliberations in the historic case.

It was unclear when the 12 jurors would reach a verdict that could upend the Republican candidate's hopes of recapturing the White House from Democratic President Joe Biden in the Nov 5 election.

Justice Merchan reread to the jurors roughly half the 55 pages of instructions he had read to them on May 29 before they began deliberations.

Jurors were then expected to hear court reporters recite testimony from two prominent witnesses, former Trump fixer Michael Cohen and former tabloid publisher David Pecker.
