After Guilty Verdict, Defendant Downs Drink in Court and Dies

Free on bail, Edward Leclair went back to a Texas court on Thursday to find out the outcome of his trial for sexual assault on a minor. When the guilty verdicts on all five charges were announced, he reached for the water bottle he brought with him. A prosecutor stated, we watched him guzzle the water,” which was murky. After Leclair’s conviction, the judge and jury discussed when to hold the sentence part of his trial. At the investigator’s request, the bailiff went to check on Leclair, and he discovered the 57-year-old looking gray and comatose. He had thrown up. Later, Leclair passed away at the hospital.

The prosecutor stated that Leclair had not touched his drink until the judge began reading the decision. Jamie Beck remarked, “It wasn’t like he was just sipping sips of water.” “He was really tossing it back.”

An autopsy is being performed to see what the heck the guy drank that saved tax payers lots of money.

Maybe it can be encouraged at trials.

  1. I find suicide morally repugnant … but in his case … well … and maybe in the cases of a few thousand politicians …

    Sometimes (I guess) it’s better to go straight to Hell and not endure Prison first.

  2. I kind of get the impression he’s been there before, and knew what awaits kid touchers there.

    Although had he run for office as a Democrat instead, it would have qualifed him for the highest of offices, just like the pedo fraudster that’s there now.

    Maybe he thought they wouldn’t have him because, White.

    …guess he didn’t realize Dems consider Pedo a protected class too…

    And I guarantee that your taxes won’t go down so little as a single penny.
    Neither will the maggots refund the taxpayers the savings from his dead ass.
