Keough case accused of politics over justice says defense
Akers and Cogdell defended Keough amid claims the prosecution repeatedly shifted its theory in a bid for a conviction. They said witnesses, including David Wade, contradicted the state's assertions about misrepresentation and the scope of danger. Wade testified Keough was truthful in all calls, and that first responders were in a broader area. The hearing also examined whether Akzo Nobel moved chemicals before the storm.
