A New York man showed up at a nearby sheriff’s office to turn over the dead body of his father, but he wasn’t alone — he brought his defense attorney with him.

Richard Fluegel Jr., 30, was charged with felony counts of second-degree murder, criminal use of a firearm, and tampering with physical evidence after he arrived at the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office in Geneseo on Dec. 10. According to police, the Livingston County Emergency Communications Center received a 911 call from someone in the sheriff’s office parking lot who “wanted to turn in a deceased body.” The call was later revealed to have been made by Brian DeCarolis, a defense attorney who began representing Fluegel just hours before they rode to the police station.
