Closing arguments wrap up in the case of the former Angels employee charged with distribution of drugs and distribution of drugs that led to the pitcher’s death
FORT WORTH, Texas — Federal prosecutors said they proved a former Los Angeles Angels employee was the only person who could have given Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs the drugs that led to his death, while a defense attorney suggested in closing arguments that the government’s case against Eric Kay was built on assumptions.
Lead prosecutor Lindsey Beran pointed to a white board filled with magnetic tiles used to build the government’s timeline and told the jury it showed the evidence needed to convict Kay. A coroner’s report said Skaggs, 27, had choked to death on his vomit, and a toxic mix of alcohol, fentanyl and oxycodone was in his system.
