Key figures Heberlee LaPlant Speer and medical staff testified about the events, autopsy results, and toxicology showing lethal methamphetamine levels. The defense centers on whether the drug distribution caused the death under a Kansas law enacted in 2018. The trial continues at the Scott County Courthouse.
