Katie's Sidebar: So, a lot of you are wondering what's going on with the anonymity of the jurors/prospective jurors in Trump's NY election interference trial. Each side was given 1 copy of the jurors' names and 1 copy of the jurors' assigned numbers. The list of names is not to be copied or photographed & must be returned to the court. The jurors have been publicly referred to by number. But their names WERE provided to both sides because they are allowed to research their backgrounds, as we saw on Tuesday when Trump's lawyers dug into some of the jurors' social media footprints.
@KatiePhang Do they have to clear their browser history after searching each of the names? (they walk away with a list of names)
@tombzona @KatiePhang The list of names is customarily given to their “jury consultants” for research into which jurors they may wish to challenge, especially in high profile cases. The Judge needs to inquire about Trump’s jury consultant!
