The Latest | Full jury of 12 people and 6 alternates seated in Trump's hush money trial in New York

A jury of 12 people and six alternates was seated on Friday in former President Donald Trump's hush money criminal trial. The completion of the jury selection process tees up the first-ever criminal trial of a former U.S. president for opening statements and weeks of testimony in a case charging Trump with falsifying business records to suppress stories about his sex life emerging in the final days of the 2016 election. The jury includes a sales professional, a software engineer, an English teacher and multiple lawyers. The process had initially folded at a fairly rapid pace, with seven jurors seated by the end of Tuesday.
