Stormy Daniels returning to the stand at Trump trial today
CBSN
Stormy Daniels' rapid-fire and sensational testimony in Donald Trump's criminal trial is set to continue for a second day Thursday.
The adult film star pointed directly at the former president while testifying on Tuesday, identifying Trump as the man from an alleged 2006 sexual encounter that set off a nearly two-decade chain of events leading to these historic proceedings.
Speaking so fast she had to be frequently interrupted and asked to slow down by the judge or prosecutor, Daniels gave jurors a detailed recounting of the alleged encounter in a hotel suite, which she said happened during a celebrity golf tournament in Nevada. She then explained why she accepted $130,000 in exchange for her silence a decade later, days before Trump was elected president.
On Nov. 13, 2016, Dr. Eric "Scott" Sills, a renowned California fertility doctor, called 911 and reported finding his wife and business partner Susann Sills unresponsive at the bottom of the stairs. An initial investigation revealed some evidence that was consistent with an accidental fall. But as "48 Hours" correspondent Tracy Smith reports, other evidence pointed to something more sinister. DETECTIVE: How do you know she — she got an email? MARY-KATHERINE SILLS: I woke up and my dad was just like on the covers just laying there like there wasn't enough room to get in I guess. So, he was just laying there.
