Who's defending Trump?published at 20:33 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021
We're hearing now from Trump's defence team. First up is lead attorney Bruce Castor Jr.
With just over a week to go before the trial, Trump parted ways with his initial legal team, including attorneys Butch Bowers and Deborah Barbier.
They were quickly replaced by David Schoen, a trial lawyer, and Bruce Castor, a former district attorney.
You may remember Schoen from his work with another high profile client: former Trump adviser Roger Stone, who received a presidential pardon in December.
Schoen also made headlines in the past for meeting with Jeffrey Epstein in his final days to discuss possible representation, and for later saying he did not believe the death of the US financier and sex offender was suicide.
Castor, a former Pennsylvania district attorney, is known for declining to prosecute Bill Cosby for sexual assault in 2005. The comedian was eventually convicted on three counts of sexual assault in a 2018 retrial of his case.
