An unexpected revelation was disclosed during the Donald Trump hush money trial, and it involved golf icon Tiger Woods having a sex scandal that was covered up by David Pecker, the publisher of the National Enquirer who admitted before the jury that he used his tabloid to bury salacious stories about famous people, including Trump and Woods.

During the eighth day of the trial, Pecker, who was a close friend of Donald Trump, revealed under oath that he bought images of Tiger Woods with another woman while he was still dating Elin Nordegren. He admitted that he bought the salacious photos of Woods's alleged cheating with another woman so that the golfer could appear on the cover of the August 2007 edition of Men's Fitness magazine.

The initial cover feature for Woods led him to garner a long relationship with the magazine, which even featured him on the front cover of its 20th-anniversary edition, as well as a 12-page feature about his diet and fitness regime.

However, two years after the initial photos of Woods having an extramarital relationship were buried by Pecker, the golfer's relationship with Rachel Uchitel was exposed. This led to his divorce from Nordegren.

As for the trial, Pecker testified that he tried to help Donald Trump with the 2016 election by burying damaging stories about him in a "catch and kill" scheme where he bought up salacious stories and made those behind the stories sign an NDA so they would not be able to talk about them.

This includes the stories involving Trump's affair with Stormy Daniels while Melania Trump was recovering from giving birth to their son, Baron. He also testified that this scheme was planned by Donald Trump, Trump's then-lawyer Michael Cohen, and himself.

Banker With Knowledge of Hush Money Payment Next To Testify During the Donald Trump Trial

The Trump hush money trial will continue on Tuesday. The 9th day of the trial will begin with Gary Farro, a senior managing director at the now-defunct First Republic Bank in New York, continuing his testimony about his role in the $130,000 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

He briefly testified during the eighth day of the trial, where he told the jury that Cohen funded the new account by taking money from his home equity line of credit. The then-Trump lawyer used the money from the account to pay Stormy Daniels. It is up to the prosecution to prove that Cohen did this under the orders of Trump, who would have violated campaign finance laws if he had done so.

Donald Trump Left a Paper Trail for the Jury To See

During David pecker's cross-examination, Trump's attorneys tried to discredit the National Enquirer publisher and presented their case that what Trump did was not illegal at all. However, with their banker witness, the jury is presented with a paper trail that might lead to the former president.

CNN reported that jurors were able to see a paper trail for a shell company and its corresponding bank account that Michael Cohen created in Delaware. That account was used to pay Pecker's company, AMI, for the rights to the story of the Playboy Playmate who slept with Trump, Karen McDougal.

In his testimony, Farro also revealed that Cohen opened an account for another company, Essential Consultants, to pay Stormy Daniels.
