Victor Bradley for the prosecution compared armed petitioners to highwaymen and said Goebel would be killed within days. He asserted Power said if no one else would kill him I will kill him myself and that Youtsey could be the shooter, with Youtsey seen fleeing into the basement afterward. G Tinsley spoke for the defense arguing Powers was not in Frankfort when Goebel was shot and the office was locked, so no one inside could know who fired the shot.
