Trump trial set to continue with second day of jury selection in New York
CBSN
Jury selection in former President Donald Trump's historic criminal trial in New York will continue for a second day on Tuesday, when the process of seating potential jurors resumes as the defendant looks on.
The first batch of jurors were sworn in on Monday after pretrial arguments over evidence and rules for the proceedings. Roughly two thirds of the group of 96 New Yorkers were quickly dismissed, with most of them saying they wouldn't be able to be fair and impartial in the trial. Others were excused for various other reasons, including their answers to a list of questions posed to each juror.
The slow process of identifying suitable jurors is likely to last at least a week. More jurors will face questioning when the second day of proceedings kicks off at 9:30 a.m.
