The station reported that witnesses provided conflicting records about Bohm's driving before the crash.
Bohm's lawyer, Michael Kraut of Kraut Law Group, told Fox News Digital that he had been a prosecutor for 15 years and had never seen such cases, such as "the man was convicted of murder and I was in a homicide case."

"It is a very low standard to tie you up for a trial through a preliminary hearing," he added. "It's not the highest standard, it's undoubtedly in the trial."
Claut said one of the witnesses admitted to chasing Baum in a highway rage, saying he contributed to the crash.

He added that witnesses confirmed the client's claim that "70 miles per hour, not 104 miles" before the crash, and every fact he gave was confirmed. ”
Claut added: "Someone is directly glittering with the lights and he has to move them away, which is shown in a video, someone pulls into the middle of the middle."
The lawyer added a "woman who saw those lights in front of him, she moved a little over a part of the driveway and tweeted at him, which shocked him and it made him in. That was when the crash happened."

"It's a terrible case for everyone - victims, family," he said. "It's a terrible event. My client's family and my client are bothered by what happened. But this issue holds my client responsible for the level of crime he promises (if any) and not just murder."
