{West Virginia}...During the trial of Hughie Stover Tuesday, the prosecution rested its case and the defense started to presenting its witnesses, beginning with Stover himself. Stover testified that what transpired was a mistake on his part and he didn't intend to do anything wrong, but the cleaning out old records was just routine. Federal prosecutors say Stover disregarded company orders not to destroy the documents.
Defense attorneys argue the charges were the government's rush to justice.
