Purcell defended DeWald, while W. N. Patten and W. E. Phelps represented the state. Purcell had previously waived his public prosecutor post to defend DeWald. The trial revealed tensions between DeWald, who worked for Roseberry’s brother, and Roseberry, leading to the fatal confrontation when Roseberry threatened DeWald and approached with hands in his pockets.
