DALLAS — A man who drank from a water bottle after his guilty verdict in a Denton County courtroom Thursday was taken to a hospital and later died Thursday, according to his defense attorney.
Edward Peter Leclair, 57, of Frisco faced five counts of child sexual assault related to an incident that took place in June 2016, according to jail records. He was arrested in July 2018 and later posted bond.
Leclair’s defense attorney Mike Howard, who represented Leclair throughout the case, said this week’s trial began with jury selection Monday.
