Judge Juan Merchan denied Former President Donald Trump’s attorney’s request for a mistrial over the testimony of prosecution witness Stormy Daniels in Trump’s criminal hush money trial.

“As a threshold matter, I agree Mr. Blanche, that there were some things that probably would’ve been better left unsaid.” Judge Merchan said, according to CNN.

“Having said that, I don’t believe we’re at a point where a mistrial is warranted,” he said.
