Lawyer: Dreamspace Artist Could Not Have Foreseen Deaths

“A jury should clear the creator of an inflatable artwork that blew away killing two people, because the prosecution had not offered enough evidence to convict him of manslaughter, a court heard today. Dreamspace artist Maurice Agis, 77, could not have predicted the conditions that saw his 164ft by 164ft (50m by 50m) PVC creation flip into the air after a gust of wind lifted it from the ground, his barrister told Newcastle Crown Court.”
