SimpleImages/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- Former President Donald Trump is on trial in New York City, where he is facing felony charges related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It marks the first time in history that a former U.S. president has been tried on criminal charges.Trump last April pleaded not guilty to a 34-count indictment charging him with falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment his then-attorney Michael Cohen made to Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election.Here's how the news is developing:May 28, 8:08 PMCourt recessed until deliberations begin tomorrowWith closing arguments concluded, Judge Merchan dismissed the jury and instructed them to return tomorrow for deliberations.He said the jury will deliberate between 10 a.m. ET and 4:30 p.m. ET tomorrow.The judge ended by advising the parties to instruct their guests that they will be locked in the courtroom once the jury charge starts."No one will be allowed in or out of the courtroom," Merchan said.Trump had a stomp in his step as he exited the courtroom, fiercely gripping his blazer and yanking down loud enough that it made a snapping noise.He did not address the media, but glared at a reporter and muttered something under his breath as he exited.May 28, 8:02 PM'Find the defendant guilty," state asks, ending summation"There's no special standard for this defendant," prosecutor Josh Steinglass said as he finished his closing. "Donald Trump can't shoot someone during rush hour on Fifth Avenue and get away with it."The judge sustained the defense's objection to that statement."In the interest of justice and in the name of the People of New York, I ask you to find the defendant guilty," Steinglass said, concluding his marathon closing.May 28, 7:57 PMState says jurors don't need to agree on 'unlawful means'Prosecutor Josh Steinglass highlighted that the jury does not need to agree about which unlawful means Trump advanced through falsifying business records."Any single one of the unlawful means is enough for you to conclude that the Trump Tower conspiracy violated New York state election law," Steinglass said. "You don't have to agree on which unlawful means were involved."Steinglass said Trump and his associates "devised this elaborate scheme requiring involvement of at least 10 other people.""That's a whole lot of time, thought and energy to conceal the truth. The defendant used his own business records as the vehicle to disguise the reimbursement because he didn't want anyone finding out about the conspiracy to corrupt the election," he said."I apologize for trading brevity for thoroughness but we only get one shot at this, and without jurors like you ... the system doesn't work," Steingless told the jurors, nearing the end of his summation.May 28, 7:52 PMState says Daniels payment constituted a campaign contributionProsecutor Josh Steinglass argued that Michael Cohen's payment to Stormy Daniels constituted a campaign contribution that grossly exceeded the legal maximum."As the judge will explain, paying a candidate's expenses counts as a contribution to that candidate," Steinglass said.He said there is "no rational argument" that the payment to Daniels "would've been made if not for the election." He pushed back against the defense's claim that the payment was made in service of "protecting Trump's marriage or family from embarrassment.""The defendant wanted to squash the story for the same reason he wanted to squash the McDougal story, and the Sajudin story -- to avoid the harm these stories might cause to his election prospects," Steinglass said.May 28, 7:48 PMTrump committed election fraud by 'any means necessary,' state saysDescribing his own closing as "summation that never ends," prosecutor Josh Steinglass told the jury that in order to convict, they will have to find the defendant "has to have had the intent to defraud," but didn't need to actually make the records himself."Point is, Trump doesn't have to do each of these acts himself -- he can act in concert with others," Steinglass said. "He set in motion a chain of events that led to the creation of the false business records."The defense objected to that statement."I'll explain the law," Judge Merchan said.Steinglass said the underlying crime they are alleging as part of the falsifying records charge is that Trump violated New York state election law.Trump committed "election fraud, by any means necessary -- lawful and unlawful," Steinglass said, telling jurors there is a "mountain of evidence" to prove it.Judge Merchan sustained another objection from the defense regarding Steinglass' effort to explain the law of the case.May 28, 7:38 PMState displays Trump tweet calling payment 'reimbursement'Addressing the question regarding whether Trump was reimbursing Michael Cohen or paying Cohen for legal work, prosecutor Josh Steinglass said of Trump, "It's just inconceivable that he would be so involved in buying these women's silence and then stick his head in the sand when it comes to Cohen's reimbursement."Steinglass showed the jury a 2018 tweet in which Trump called the payments a reimbursement."Mr. Cohen, an attorney, received a monthly retainer, not from the campaign and having nothing to do with the campaign, from which he entered into, through reimbursement, a private contract between two parties, known as a non-disclosure agreement, or NDA," the tweet said.May 28, 7:26 PMProsecutor stresses Cohen kept Trump in the loopProsecutor Josh Steinglass argued that Michael Cohen kept Trump in the loop because he sought Trump's credit."If Cohen accomplished something for Mr. Trump, he wanted Mr. Trump to know immediately," Steinglass said.Steinglass highlighted testimony from former Trump aide Hope Hicks to highlight Cohen's credit-seeking nature."I didn't know Michael to be an especially charitable person, um, or selfless person. He's the kind of person who seeks credit," Hicks testified."Why would the defendant be kept in the dark about the Daniels' NDA?" Steinglass asked the jury, referring to the nondisclosure agreement. "It defies common sense."May 28, 7:23 PM'Michael Cohen is not some rogue actor,' state saysMore than four hours into his summation, Prosecutor Josh Steinglass returned to the timelines of the Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels payoffs.Steinglass argued that Cohen attempted to delay the Stormy Daniels payment until after the 2016 election at the direction of Trump."You think Cohen would have the audacity to take that chance without the defendant saying so?" Steinglass said. "Cohen did that -- that strategy of delay -- because that's what the defendant told him to.""There is just no way -- no way -- that Cohen wouldn't have told Mr. Trump about Daniels during that phone call. Why wouldn't he have?" Steingless said."Is this timing just all a coincidence, every single one of these things? Mr. Trump was being kept abreast of every development.""Michael Cohen is not some rogue actor here," Steinglass said. "He is acting at the direction of the defendant."May 28, 7:14 PMJudge tells state to wrap it by the top of the hourAfter the parties returned to the courtroom following the final break, Judge Merchan told prosecutor Josh Steinglass he needs to wrap up his summation by 8 p.m."You've been going for four hours now, and the jury has been clear they need to go by 8 o'clock," the judge said."Thanks for sticking with me," Steinglass told the jury before diving back into his closing argument.May 28, 6:58 PMTrump's tweets were a message not to cooperate, state saysAfter Michael Cohen implicated Trump in the hush money scheme in August 2018, Trump was "furious," prosecutor Josh Steinglass told the jury."His fixer had done the unthinkable, and Trump im
