Watch from New York City as Donald Trump’s historic hush-money trial entered a second day on Tuesday 16 April, as lawyers tried to select 12 jurors to consider the guilt or innocence of the first former US president to face criminal charges.
The first day underscored the challenges of the task, with roughly half of 100 potential jurors questioned dismissed after saying they could not impartially judge the polarising former president, who is mounting a comeback White House bid while battling four separate criminal cases.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has charged Mr Trump with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to cover up a hush-money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 election.
Ms Daniels says she had a sexual relationship with Mr Trump about a decade beforehand.
He has pleaded not guilty and denies an encounter took place.
Mr Trump’s campaign has also furiously denied rumours that he fell asleep during the first day of his historic trial.
