6:15 a.m. EST:  As court resumed , the final witness, George Straus, an expert in the field of biomechanics took the stand for the defense.  Straus testified that Daniel Nosek (the deceased) could not have turned his body 180 degrees if pushed from the stage and land on the back of his head as reported.  Further Straus state that Nosek couldn’t have been pushed over the first row of spectators, and had to have actively jumped over them.

The prosecutor objected several times as the expert overlooked eyewitness testimony and the real world conditions at the scene.  

That testimony was followed by closing arguments from both the prosecution and the defense.

The verdict is expected later today.  We will be updating as new information comes in.
