Pulaski County Councilman to Resign Following Plea Deal

(La Porte, IN) - A Pulaski County Councilman has accepted a plea deal after being caught breaking several laws.

 

In April, Brian Young was charged with two counts of voting outside of his precinct, theft, perjury, and official misconduct.

 

After two local judges recused themselves, Young’s case was moved to La Porte County.

 

On Tuesday, Young pled guilty to the two voting transgressions, both Level 6 felonies. In return, the other charges were dropped, and the Councilman will resign from his position.

 

Young was up for reelection in November.
