karen mcdougal got paid off but the cast of characters never changes. the common denominator is michael cohen as the picture with david fixing the public face and donald trump paying it off. what was important is that there is some of us that are jaded having gone through this for years. going on this wild ride that is the donald trump experience. we are all in this courtroom and listening to all of this and we are still stunned when we hear todd blanche get up. by the way, the spaghetti theory, we have heard this as trial lawyers. you throw anything on the wall and hope something sticks. you just want to create reasonable doubt. if you created somehow, who cares how it happened. blanche is meandering. we will talk about this now but we will talk about this. it did not seem like there was any type of organized flow and he only used 35 minutes when he could have used more. i think he got to the point where he ran out of steam. and we would just sit down. >> reporter: one of the things in the opening is it is really important for both sides not to overpro

mr cohen was earlier involved in paying off a playboy model, karen mcdougal, who also said she'd had an affair with donald trump. he even recorded a conversation with mr trump about that deal, which the prosecution will use to show a pattern of behaviour. it will be a dramatic moment when michael cohen gives evidence as the prosecution's star witness, and there may be some rather more salacious testimony as well. donald trump's lawyers believe stormy daniels herself will be called to the stand. the first witness was david pecker, from the national enquirer magazine, who the prosecution claim conspired with donald trump to stop harmful stories being published that could damage his presidential campaign. donald trump will be back in court tomorrow in a case that's expected to last around six weeks. sarah smith, bbc news, new york. lucy letby, the nurse found guilty of the murder and attempted murder of babies in her care, is applying for permission to appeal against her convictions. the 34—year—old was told last year she'd spend the rest of her life injail, after she was found guil

first with stormy daniels and later with karen mcdougal who herself was paid by the national enquirer. they are using david pecker to set the stage. we have scratched the surface with his beginning testimony that will continue tomorrow. host: tell us about what we heard from the defense in the opening arguments. reporter: the defense's role today in their opening statement was to sow doubt through the prosecution's case because the burden of proof is on the prosecution. and todd blanche, donald trump's lawyer was mocking several elements of their case saying there is nothing illegal about influencing an election, it is called democracy, he said. he also said the catch and skill -- catch and kill scheme, nothing wrong with that either. he put distance between trump and falsifying records. saying he was so far up in the organization that he did not have his hand in the details. another key piece we will see is in trying to say that the prosecution's case is built on unreliable witnesses. for michael cohen, they painted him as someone that has a vendetta against donald trump wanting to s
