A Minnesota man convicted in a deadly 2006 Toyota crash will soon learn whether he gets a new trial.
Koua Fong Lee is requesting a new trial in the wake of Toyota Corp.'s issues with sudden unintended acceleration in newer-model cars -- even though Lee's 1996 Camry was never recalled.
Attorneys wrapped up closing arguments Thursday, and Judge Joanne Smith is expected to rule later Thursday on whether to grant Lee a new trial.
Earlier, Lee rejected a prosecutor's offer to vacate his sentence, saying he wants to prove his innocence.
Defense attorneys argued that Lee's original defender was ineffective and failed to explore the possibility of unintended acceleration.
Prosecutor Mark Lystig said Lee was driving too fast and was unfamiliar with the car when the crash occurred, ultimately killing three people.
