During the ongoing legal proceedings, defense attorney Emil Bove has indicated the potential need for a jury instruction regarding uncalled witnesses on both sides. The question of whether former President Donald Trump will testify remains uncertain. Bove highlighted that key witness Allen Weisselberg is currently incarcerated, making him unavailable for any testimony.
Bove further argued against the admission of a severance agreement, deeming it unduly prejudicial. He expressed concerns about potential confusion for the jury, particularly given Weisselberg's incarceration status. Bove noted that if called to testify, Weisselberg would likely invoke his Fifth Amendment rights.
