"Key Witness Absent from Trump's Trial"

Allen Weisselberg, Donald Trump's former finance chief, did not testify in Trump's criminal trial as he is currently serving time for perjury. His absence is significant, as prosecutors believe he was a key witness to a disputed meeting involving Trump and Michael Cohen about a hush-money payment. Trump's lawyers are expected to highlight Weisselberg's absence in their closing arguments, questioning the reliability of Cohen's testimony.
