Clark
Brewster,
attorney
for
pornstar
Stormy
Daniels,
stated
that
a
bulletproof
vest
was
worn
by
her
every
day
until
arriving
at
the
Manhattan
courthouse
to
testify
against
former
US
President
Donald
Trump.

In
an
exclusive
interview
with
CNN,
Brewster
revealed
that
Daniels
was
gripped
with
fear-not
about
taking
the
stand
or
sharing
her
story,
but
about
potential
threats
from
individuals.
He
expressed
genuine
concern
regarding
this
matter.

Concerns
about
security
upon
entering
New
York
were
expressed
by
Daniels.
She
was
particularly
uneasy
due
to
her
residence
in
an
area
that
may
lack
the
level
of
security
she
finds
reassuring.
Brewster
further
shared
that
Daniels
cried
herself
to
sleep
before
her
arrival
on
Sunday.

Daniels’ Safety
Concerns
Highlighted

Clark
Brewster,
attorney
for
Stormy
Daniels,
also
shared
that
Daniels
had
been
wearing
her
daughter’s
necklace
to
court
for
comfort.
In
an
interview
with
CNN,
Brewster
described
this
gesture
as
touching,
noting
that
Daniels’
daughter,
Caden
Crain,
had
crafted
the
necklace
for
her.

Daniels’
fears
for
her
safety
are
not
unfounded,
having
previously
expressed
similar
concerns
in
a
documentary
released
earlier
this
year.
In
the
film,
she
mentioned
that
her
acceptance
of
hush
money
was
driven
by
apprehension
for
her
personal
safety.
Brewster
reiterated
this
sentiment
following
Daniels’
testimony,
which
included
explicit
details
of
an
alleged
2006
sexual
encounter
with
Donald
Trump-an
allegation
Trump
has
vehemently
denied,
as
reported
by
Hindustan
Times.

Brewster
emphasized
that
Daniels
demonstrated
her
quick
thinking
and
responsiveness
during
cross-questioning
by
Trump’s
lawyers,
describing
it
as
her
moment
to
“shine.”

Trump’s
Lawyer
Denies
Alleged
Affair
and
Challenges
Daniels’
Credibility

In
the
midst
of
escalating
legal
proceedings,
Donald
Trump’s
attorney,
Susan
Necheles,
intensified
the
battle
by
cross-examining
Stormy
Daniels
in
an
attempt
to
undermine
her
credibility.
Necheles
focused
on
Daniels’
financial
gains
from
publicly
disclosing
the
alleged
affair,
portraying
her
as
an
unreliable
witness
and
asserting
that
the
affair
“never
happened,” as
per
media
reports.

The
case
revolves
around
34
felony
charges
against
the
former
president,
accusing
him
of
falsifying
business
records
related
to
a
$130,000
payment
to
Daniels.
This
payment,
orchestrated
by
Trump’s
former
“fixer” Michael
Cohen,
was
allegedly
intended
to
secure
Daniels’
silence
about
the
purported
affair
during
the
critical
period
of
the
2016
presidential
election.
