with an ex-business partner’s multimillion-dollar fraud scheme.
The plea was entered for 39-year-old Todd Leary
of Carmel during an Allen County court hearing Tuesday.
Leary’s attorney, Ginny Maxwell, said Wednesday it was
too early in court proceedings to comment on the allegations against him.
Prosecutors say Leary once worked for
a title insurance broker who pleaded guilty to several charges in a $2.7 million scheme and that Leary conspired to divert
more than $1 million from the partner’s title company in Fort Wayne.
Leary played for Indiana during 1989-94 and
had been an analyst for IU’s radio broadcasts for several years.
