(New York, NY) -- Opening statements in former President Trump's criminal trial are underway.
A jury of seven men and five women was chosen last week, with six alternates also in place. The former President is accused of falsifying business records in order to cover up payments allegedly made to an adult film star just prior to the 2016 election. While nothing is set in stone, Trump has said he plans to testify. He called the case election interference as he walked into the courtroom this morning.
The trial is expected to last around six weeks.
