Inside the federal courthouse less than a mile from the West Side Highway bike path, which turned into a scene of chaos and destruction on Halloween in 2017, the U.S. government rested its case Monday in the terrorism trial of Sayfullo Saipov.

The defense also filed a motion of acquittal on all charges.

This comes after two weeks of testimony from victims, family members, law enforcement officers and experts. Attorneys for Saipov have chosen not to cross-examine any of the victims, moving this trial along much faster than expected.

On Monday morning, the jury heard portions of taped jailhouse phone calls to family members. In one, Saipov stated that he was "Allah's warrior."

"I am the soldier of the caliphate," Saipov said.

On Monday afternoon, the first deputy medical examiner for the city testified in depth about the injuries of the eight victims who died — leaving family members in tears in the courtroom.

If convicted, the 34-year-old could face the death penalty after being charged with using a truck to kill eight people on the West Side Highway bike path on Oct. 31, 2017.

He pleaded not guilty to all 28 counts, including eight counts of murder, 18 counts of attempted murder and providing support to a terrorist organization.

While Saipov's own attorneys say he carried out the attack and still believes in the same ISIS ideologies he did in 2017, they say he had no contact with ISIS officials before the attack and was radicalized by videos shared on social media.

Prosecutors maintain Saipov, who lived in New Jersey and came to the U.S. from Uzbekistan on a work visa in 2010, carried out the attack in order to join ISIS and would have continued to the Brooklyn Bridge if a responding NYPD officer didn’t shoot him and stop him in his tracks.

This the first federal death penalty trial being heard under President Joe Biden — who has previously pledged to eliminate the death penalty at the federal level. The first phase of the trial will determine if Saipov is guilty — if found guilty, the same jury will then determine if he will face an execution.

The defense does not plan to call any witnesses, and Saipov said he will not testify — it is expected that closing arguments will begin Tuesday.
