Donald Trump’s fate is out of his hands. 

A jury of 12 New Yorkers has begun deliberating in the former president’s hush money criminal case, holding the power to make Trump the first American president ever found guilty of a crime – or the first to be acquitted of one.  

The trial concluded Tuesday with closing arguments from Trump’s attorneys and state prosecutors stretching a full day, keeping jurors in court until 8 p.m. to ensure they’d receive the case Wednesday. 

Defense attorneys spent much of their time hammering Michael Cohen, Trump’s ex-fixer, while prosecutors defended the documentation that — backed by Cohen’s testimony — forms the foundation of their case against Trump.
