Hunter Biden's defense attorney, Abbe Lowell, informed the court on Monday that Hunter Biden will not be testifying in the ongoing case. Lowell agreed to a jury instruction that will advise the jury not to hold it against Hunter Biden for not testifying.
The jury instruction is scheduled to be read later today to the jury members. It is important to note that this decision does not definitively rule out the possibility of Hunter Biden testifying in the future.
The official announcement regarding Hunter Biden's decision to testify or not will be made when the defense concludes presenting its case, in the presence of the jury.
