Legal analyst Elie Honig discusses issues of what the judge may tell the jury before deliberations in Trump's hush money trial.

The prosecution in Donald Trump's hush money trial could face difficulties convincing a jury that the former president committed felony offenses depending on the instructions they are given ahead of deliberations, according to a legal expert.Speaking on the Stay Tuned with Preet podcast hosted by Preet Bharara, former U.S.

If the jury is going to be instructed that the other crime here is state or federal campaign finance law, don't they have to get into what that means?' Honig said.'The burglary statute says if you go into someone's home and you have zip tie, and a ski mask, and a stun gun, and it's obvious you're planning on assaulting somebody, you can be then convicted for conspiracy to do the other crime,' he added.
