Jury sent home as Iowa Film Office trial nears verdict
The jury in the Tom Wheeler fraud and conspiracy trial has been sent home for the weekend after reaching verdicts on eight of nine counts. Judge Douglas Staskal ordered jurors to return Tuesday to resume deliberations in Polk County Court. Prosecutors allege Wheeler acted as an inside man for filmmakers inflating costs to siphon state film tax credits. The defense says he sought to run the office properly.
