The Latest | Witness testimony resumes as Trump’s hush money trial enters 15th day

NEW YORK (AP) — Witness testimony in Donald Trump’s hush money case has resumed and it caps a feverish week that saw Stormy Daniels captivate jurors with sometimes graphic testimony, another failed bid for a mistrial and more. Madeleine Westerhout, a former Trump White House aide, returned to stand on Friday and other witnesses are expected to follow. Prosecutors say Trump and others schemed to influence the 2016 presidential election by buying and burying negative stories that might hurt his campaign. He is accused of falsifying internal business records to cover up hush money payments by logging them as legal expenses. He has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts.
