A trial is nearing its end in a federal terrorism case. The defendant, a 28-year-old man, has decided not to take the stand. He has already been convicted of attempted murder at the state level.

The case involves the stabbing of a prize-winning author. The author testified about the attack last week. Further details about the case and its expected outcome are available from KSAT 12, including the defendant's plea and the charges against him.

Closing arguments are expected soon, potentially as early as Wednesday morning.
