Its in the article. Bill Meeks.
If there is a high profile criminal case in the Columbus area, you will see a handfull of attorneys on the case. Terry Sherman, Sam Weiner, Bill Meeks and a couple of others whose name escape me at the moment. Meeks (I think) is a former Franklin County prosecuter who uses his connections and knowledge of the local system very well.
The "bad haircut" comment was half in jest. He does have a '70s, over the ears, forehead bangs haircut that seems very odd in the 21st century.
Does the perp come from money? If not, does Meeks do pro bono work?
