Press Release here (PDF warning): https://www.nycourts.gov/LegacyPDFS/press/pdfs/PR24_19.pdf
It’s confusing to find, but it’s all there. I want a youtuber to act it out for me. :)
Opening Statement starts on Page 857 in the upper right hand corner.
Um, these are worth reading.
A) Prosecution Opening Statement: They have audio of Trump having Cohen set up shell companies to pay off the women. Also, Trump had 3 stories worth a catch and kill that were considered true.
They have Cohen and Weiselburg’s (sp?) handwriting to prove all of the numbers.
B) Defense Opening Statement:
IMO, the prosecution seems to be calling up facts and the defense is going the emotional route.
