Ind. Courts - Yet more on: "Lawyer guilty of attack on woman in wheelchair"
Updating this ILB entry from March 11th, Bob Kasarda of the NWI Times reports today in a story that begins:
VALPARAISO | One month after he was sentenced to jail for sexually assaulting a woman who relies on a wheelchair, Michael Haughee was brought back to court Tuesday to request the opportunity to bond out to pursue his appeal.The former Hebron Town Council President and former Lake County Deputy Prosecutor said he needs to be out of jail to properly pursue his appeal.
He said he has access to just a small amount of his records at the jail and no real access to a law library.
Haughee said he dismissed his defense attorney, Garry Weiss, and plans to initially pursue the appeal on his own. Haughee has worked as an attorney, but his law license is currently suspended.
