AP News. I'm Ed Donohue. Closing arguments are underway in Delaware in Hunter Biden's federal gun trial. Here's the AP's Julie Walker. A prosecutor told Juris Monday that no one is above the law as he urged them to convict President Biden's son Hunter on charges he lied about his drug use when he bought a gun in 2018. In his closing argument, prosecutor Leah Wise told Juris to focus on the overwhelming evidence against Hunter Biden and pay no mind to members of the president's family sitting in the courtroom, including First Lady Jill Biden. Defense Attorney Abby Lowell told Juris the prosecution did not meet its burden of proving its case beyond a reasonable doubt. The defense has suggested that at the time he bought the gun, Hunter Biden did not consider himself an addict. I'm Julie Walker.

The family of missing British TV presenter Michael Mosley confirmed his body was found off the Greek island of Saimi. Here's the AP's Charles Della Dersma. And Tony's Maesti Loblu, a cameraman for Greek state broadcaster E.R.T. says in an interview with Sky News he had seen something at the end of the Aguirre Marina Beach. And so he took a close up with his camera as far as it consumed. We took a photo of the screen with an iPhone, we zoomed it in and you can clearly see there is a man laying down with his hand on his belly, the watch and on his other hand he has his body. Maesti Loblu reasons Mosley fell off the rocks. My guess is that he got dizzy, he sit down to relax to something independent. The cameraman adds, "I wish we had better news for the family."
