The prosecution obviously follows the BEA report, so if you don't believe in that report, you will think of the prosecution whatever you like.
But there is a distinction between prosecution and judge. A judge may not follow the prosection, and it happens every day in every decent judicial system like the french. A judge, as far as I understand, may even call witnesses on his/her own.
So, if the alternative explanation has merits, it will have a chance.
