Accused Uncle’s Defense Rips Apart Murder Case

Defense attorney for David Prevatte urged jurors to find him not guilty, arguing prosecutors failed to prove he sexually assaulted or murdered 5-year-old Paitin Fields beyond a reasonable doubt. The defense challenged the state’s DNA evidence and theory an earbuds cord was used as a ligature, questioning how it could have caused the marks on Paitin’s neck. He also argued Prevatte’s emotional reaction and frantic efforts to get Paitin to the hospital showed genuine concern for his niece, not consciousness of guilt.
