Davis' defense team says they're working to prove he was not driving when the accident happened.

"The defense feels like police botched the investigation," said David Slane, defense attorney. "We believe it's very sloppy and we think a lot of mistakes were made."

If Davis is found guilty, he could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.
