A Wabash County jury of 7 men and 5 women is currently deciding the fate of 53 year old Adam Vaira of Allendale.

Closing arguments in Vaira’s sexual assault trial were delivered this morning by state’s attorney Kelli Storckman and defense attorney Melissa Doran.

Storckman laid out the six charges against Vaira that include two Class X felony counts of predatory criminal sexual assault and four Class 2 felony charges of aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a family member and the testimony presented at this week’s trial that proved Vaira’s guilt.

Doran told jurors that without any physical evidence, the case boils down to “he said, she said” and which version of the testimony do they believe. She said the alleged victims’ stories were “factually implausible” and shouldn’t result in a guilty verdict for Vaira.

The jury began deliberations on the six counts at 11am today.
