The trial of one of the South's most conscientious lawyers, Luther Rosser, was a heavy burden for all lawyers. In his first three weeks, Luther lost 25 pounds of his weight, Dorsey the attorney turned pale and nervous, and Ruben Arnold and Frank Hooper showed signs of extreme strain. The defense team worked under even stricter conditions and received dozens of threatening letters from across the state. The Nashville, Tennessee man spent at least $100 to follow Rosser's proposal and written instructions on how to proceed with the defense's arguments. Tensions escalated throughout the city during the fourth week of the trial. During the trial of Leo M. Frank, the crowd around the courtroom became louder and more protesting. His mother and wife also bore the burden. Leo Frank occassionally sobbed and stroked her husband's hands, list to praise and criticism from witnesses. Atlanta Synagogue Rabbi David Marx has refused to travel to Europe to comfort President Bennett Bliss Moses Frank. The trial was the longest in Southern history, and Frank presided over it, as did prisoners who had ever stood on the scaffold. The state never attacked his spirituality, and even Lawyer Dorsey described him as a spiritual giant with brain capable of accomplishing great things if he was pointed in the right direction. The case's lead attorneys, Luther Z. Rosser and Reuben R. Arnold and Hugh M. Dorsey have all expressed support for the defendants in this action. Luther Z. Rosser argued that Arnold was the victim of suspicious circumstances and that his story was unique and irrefutable. Arnold also argued that the state was building a case based on Conley's testimony, and that while the black main remained in the police station cell, it would happen or he would die.

Attorney Hugh M. Dorsey argues that Arnold was a moral gentleman and that the state filed a lawsuit based on Conley's testimony that he stood and fell while the black man remained in the police station cell, it would appen or he would die.

⁣Attorney Frank A. Hooper had accused of Leo Frank of strangling Mary Phagan to restore her honor. He had taken her young girl on a long drive on the Haightville Line on the Saturday morning before her murder, and had made several attempts to persuade her to get out of her car. One of the factory workers, Emily Mayfield, was in the changing room when Frank opened the door to check. The lawyer brought up the fact that Frank and Conley were on the fourth floor of the factory at the same time on Tuesday after the murder, and Frank pulled him aside and advised him to be a good lad.
