NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (AP) – Indiana's former elections chief is raising questions about his attorney's health during the 2012 trial that led to his conviction on voter fraud charges.
Charlie White testified Monday in a Hamilton County court that attorney Carl Brizzi complained regularly that he couldn't sleep. He said Brizzi appeared “worn down” by the end of the trial.
White was ousted as secretary of state in February 2012 after his conviction. The charges stemmed from his use of his ex-wife's home in Fishers as his voting address in 2010 while serving on the Fishers Town Council and running for secretary of state.
He says Brizzi supplied incompetent counsel and wants his convictions overturned.
Brizzi testified last week that White was unpredictable and that having him testify would have been a disaster.
