Manhattan court must find a dozen jurors to hear first-ever criminal case against a former president

Jury selection is set to start Monday in ex-President Donald Trump's hush-money case — the first trial among four criminal prosecutions of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. “There is no question that picking a jury in a case involving someone as familiar to everyone as former President Trump poses unique problems,” one of the trial prosecutors, Joshua Steinglass, said during a hearing.
