Defense: Science will clear Texas man of deaths Posted: Tuesday, October 7, 2014 8:43 pm | Updated: 9:00 pm, Tue Oct 7, 2014. WACO, Texas (AP) — A defense attorney told a Central Texas jury that she’ll present expert testimony that will prove his client innocent of the 1986 fire deaths of his two stepsons. Michelle Tuegel represents Edward Graf, a 62-year-old man being retried in Waco on murder, capital murder and injury-to-a-child charges in the 1986 deaths. The Waco Tribune-Herald (bit.ly/1t1v97D) reports Tuegel told the McLennan County jury that Graf’s adopted stepsons, 8-year-old Jason and 9-year-old Joby, liked to play with matches. She said she will show they accidentally set the toolshed fire that killed them. Prosecutor Michael Jarrett previously told jurors that the two boys’ deaths are a story of greed, lies and arrogance. ___ Information from: Waco Tribune-Herald, wacotrib © 2014 The Associated Press.
