What it's like to watch Trump's "hush money" trial from inside the courtroom
CBSN
Everyone but the judge and jurors are seated before Donald Trump and his team enter the courtroom each day in his New York criminal trial.
Reporters, other members of the public, prosecutors and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg himself, must all pass through security screening and be in place, and quiet, as Trump approaches the room.
The group is sometimes settled in before Trump's motorcade has even pulled up to the 17-story Art Deco-style building. The court officers' radios suddenly crackle, echoing off the high, 83-year-old ceilings, announcing the arrival of a former president.
An American Airlines jet with 60 passengers and four crew members aboard collided with an Army helicopter Wednesday night while coming in for a landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington. The Black Hawk helicopter was carrying a crew of three. Officials said early Thursday that everyone on board both aircraft is believed dead, which would make it the deadliest U.S. air crash in nearly a quarter century.
