>> Timeline: Zhukovskyy's driving history; see how case has evolved
The defense rested Monday after the testimony of a crash reconstruction analyst, who told jurors the impact of the crash happened on the center line of the road.
He said Zhukovsyy's truck was traveling straight at the time, adding that Jarheads Motorcycle Club member Albert Mazza hit Zhukovskyy's truck, causing it to cross the road.
Prosecutors push back on that theory. They have argued that Zhukovskyy was seen driving across the yellow line before the crash.
The jury is scheduled to receive final instructions from the judge Tuesday morning, followed by closing statements from both sides.
