Man’s Conviction In Deadly Overdose Upheld

The Indiana Court of Appeals upheld a Delaware County man’s convictions stemming from a local woman’s fatal overdose. 41 year old Curtis Atkinson had been found guilty of aiding, inducing or causing dealing in a controlled substance resulting in death, a Level 1 felony carrying up to 40 years in prison. In an appeal, Atkinson maintained evidence in the case was insufficient to prove his guilt.
