The defense called no witnesses. In closing statements basically, Joe's lawyers claimed she was full of it and caused the situation because she was angry. But more importantly, case has not proved the charges beyond a reasonable doubt. The prosecution says the opposite as expected.
We will have a verdict today.
Beyond a reasonable doubt is a heavy burden and based on what was reported there is plenty of doubt. That does not imply that Joe didn't do something wrong or even that the situation didn't play out exactly as she claimed it did. It just means it wasn't proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Of course, for legal purposes, the only opinion that counts is the Judge's and she may see it 100% differently
