NextImg:Donald Trump will not testify at his ‘hush money’ criminal trial as defense rests

Donald Trump will not testify at his “hush money” criminal trial after all.

The defense rested after Bob Costello stepped down from the stand, meaning that the ex-president will not testify.

The decision comes a day after Trump’s personal lawyer Alina Habba claimed to news cameras that Trump “wanted” to testify.

Jurors will now have a week off before closing statements, which have been scheduled for next Tuesday.

Lawyers from both sides will be back at court at 2:15 p.m. for a charging conference where they will hash out the instructions the jury will receive before they start deliberating.

Justice Juan Merchan has said he expects deliberations could start as early as Wednesday.
