As the former juror left the courtroom, he said he should not have been excused and nodded when asked if he felt he would not be prejudiced. He declined to give his name to court reporters.
Below is a description from Axios of the seven jurors selected on Tuesday.
1. The sales foreman lives in Harlem but is from Ireland.
2. A native New Yorker who is an oncology nurse.
3. A corporate lawyer from Oregon.
4. A self-employed IT consultant who lives on the Lower East Side but grew up in Puerto Rico.
5. Teacher and lifelong New Yorker. She was the only juror who said she didn’t know Trump was charged in three other cases.
6. Software engineer working at Disney.
7. A lawyer who lives on the Upper East Side.
Trump’s unprecedented trial began Monday morning with jury selection. Thursday was the third day of that process, which could be completed early next week.
Democratic Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Trump with 34 felonies for falsifying documents to cover up an alleged sex scandal. The trial is the first-ever criminal trial against a U.S. president. If Trump is convicted, he could face prison time.
An AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll found Tuesday that only about one-third of American adults believe President Trump acted illegally in connection with the incident.
The case is new york vs trump, New York County Supreme Court No. 71543-23.
