John Edwards is accused of using more than $1 million in donations made towards his 2008 presidential campaign to cover up an affair with Rielle Hunter, whore.
The money was allegedly used to hide Hunter by paying her rent and living expenses, as well as stays at luxury hotels and trips on private jets.
In June 2011, Edwards was indicted by a North Carolina grand jury on six felony charges: four counts of collecting illegal campaign contributions, one count of making false statements and one count of conspiracy.
If he is found guilty of the charges, he faces up to 30 years behind bars and a $1.5 million fine.
Edwards denies any wrongdoing, claiming the money was a gift. His defense argues it was therefore not subject to campaign finance laws.
