Former President Donald Trump's trial over potential violations of falsifying business records is set to formally begin in Manhattan, on Monday, with former National Enquirer owner David Pecker set to be the first person to take the stand.
While the first-ever criminal trial of a former President of the United States began last week, the first four days were dedicated to jury selection. The legal proceedings will begin in earnest Monday with prosecutors from the Manhattan District Attorney's office and Trump's defense team presenting the 12 jury members -- which range from lawyers and bankers to teachers and engineers -- opposing interpretations of New York financial law. Trump was indicted just over a year ago on 34 charges related to a pair of incidents in 2016 that prosecutors allege, and his critics say, swung the course of the 2016 election.
