""From the moment this happened, Mr. Wood never moved anywhere away from doing anything, other than trying to get Emge help," Welch argued. "When the police arrived, from the beginning until the end, he was 100 percent cooperative and open with them.""
"Alice Wong, the assistant district attorney, argued that she is concerned about Wood being a flight risk, given that Wood was planning to leave in the coming weeks to serve in the National Guard."
"Welch disagreed. "The fact that he was going to be in the National Guard, is hardly evidence of fleeing. If anything,""
