美国前总统特朗普（Donald Trump）涉嫌伪造商业记录，隐瞒向成人电影女星支付掩口费的刑事案件，4月18日继续遴选陪审员，2名日前已获选的陪审员退出。其中一人称个人资讯被公开，令她担心会受恐吓而要求退出，已获法官批准。另外一人的原因暂未公布，令获选陪审员暂剩5人。

该名陪审员向法官指出，传媒报道令其身份曝光，有亲友和同事因此与她联络，令她感到害怕和会受恐吓。她指在此情况下，不相信自己能继续做到公平和公正，确保决定不受外界所影响。 “There’s a reason why this is an anonymous jury, and we’ve taken the measures we have taken,” Justice Juan Merchan admonished the press. “It kind of defeats the purpose of that when so much information is put out there.”https://t.co/palUxcI721

承审法官梅尔昌（Juan Merchan）再次要求新闻媒体，不要报道候选陪审员或陪审员的的工作地点。

为保护此案12名陪审员和6名候补陪审员免受滋扰，此前梅尔昌已下令对他们保持匿名，并对特朗普下发禁言令，阻止批评陪审员、证人在内的出庭人员。
