Jury deliberation begins in Trump hush money trial

As Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial draws to a close, the scene outside the courthouse is picking up with the largest amount of press at the scene since day one, according to the CNN team on the ground.

Every spot in the press pens appears to be occupied, with some of the less frequent attendees present Wednesday.

At 10:20 a.m. ET, there are a couple dozen protesters in the park, some waving Trump flags and dozens of people who appear to be simply observing what's happening.

There is also more police presence than most days in the past. They are located both on the streets and in the park.

The street parking in front of the courthouse is blocked with bike racks today, which has not happened previously during this trial.
