Former President Donald Trump arrives for his hearing to determine the date of his trial for allegedly covering up hush money payments linked to extramarital affairs, at Manhattan Criminal Court in New York City on March 25, 2024."You are literally accusing the Manhattan DA's office and the people assigned to this case of prosecutorial misconduct and to make me complicit in it, and you don't have a single cite to support that position," Merchan told Blanche.
Prosecutor Matthew Colangelo aggressively pushed back on the allegation that the District Attorney's Office actively suppressed potential evidence from defense attorneys. "here are significant questions of fact which this Court must resolve before it may rule on Defendant's motion," Merchan wrote in a ruling earlier this month.
While the DA's office said that, in June 2023, they turned over all the materials they received from U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York -- which in 2018 secured aon campaign finance charges related to the Stormy Daniels payment -- Trump's lawyers sent a subpoena to the federal prosecutors on Jan. 18, 2024, seeking additional materials.
While defense lawyers have highlighted the sheer number of pages produced by federal prosecutors, Naftalis cautioned that the documents' contents will ultimately determine Judge Merchan's next move.
