From Brian Noll's Defense Attorney Jason Russo: 

"Our client has been unjustifiably charged with murder,” Noll’s Garden City-based lawyer Jason Russo said. “We believe in earnest that Mr. Noll did not engage in any road rage. The motorcyclist had been operating in an unsafe manner and took aggressive action against my client who the motorcyclist  perceived had cut him off. My client is a 64-year-old grandfather who was heading with his wife to see family at a baby shower. The suggestion that he would intentionally steer his truck into a motorcyclist to cause their death is absurd.”
