The proceedings present a historic challenge for the court, the lawyers and the everyday citizens who find themselves in the jury pool.
FILE - Former President Donald Trump , center, appears in court for his arraignment, Tuesday, April 4, 2023, in New York. Of the 1.4 million adults who live in Manhattan , a dozen are soon to become the first Americans to sit in judgment of a former president charged with a crime.— the first trial among four criminal prosecutions of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
Still, if jury selection will be tricky, it's not impossible, says John Jay College of Criminal Justice psychology professor Margaret Bull Kovera. But the hush-money case, which carries the possibility of up to four years in prison if he's convicted, raises the stakes. Those who remain will be called in groups into the jury box — by number, as their names won't be made public — to answer 42 questions, some with multiple parts.
Potential jurors also will be quizzed about any "strong opinions or firmly held beliefs" about Trump or his candidacy that would cloud their ability to be fair, any feelings about how Trump is being treated in the case and any "strong opinions" on whether ex-presidents can be charged in state courts.
