Defense rests without Donald Trump testifying in criminal hush-money trial
Judge Juan Merchan adjourns trial until next Tuesday, when the court will reconvene to hear closing arguments
The defense rested in Donald Trump’s criminal trial on Tuesday, without the former president himself testifying.
Trump had previously railed about being silenced and falsely claimed he was not allowed to testify, but ultimately elected of his own volition not to take the stand in his own defense.
