Ind. Courts - Still more on: "Lawyer guilty of attack on woman in wheelchair"
Updating this ILB entry from March 7th, Bob Kasarda of the NWI Times reports today:
VALPARAISO | Former Hebron Town Council President and former Lake County Deputy Prosecutor Michael Haughee turned himself in at the county jail Monday morning to begin serving a one-year term for sexually assaulting a woman who uses a wheelchair.Haughee had hoped to avoid going to jail until his appeal has been decided. [Porter Circuit Court Judge Mary Harper denied the delay.] * * *
Harper sentenced Haughee to one year in jail, which can be completed in half that time with good behavior. Upon his release, he is to spend a year on formal probation, register for 10 years as a sex offender and undergo HIV testing, sex offender treatment and a mental health evaluation.
