Utah judge Robert Dale is allowing the defense of David Edward Drummond, Jr., who is serving a life sentence for shooting his wife in 2005, to investigate whether Drommond had suffered adverse effects from the antidepressant Effexor. Defense attorney Scott Wiggins argued that Drommond’s trial attorney provided “ineffective counsel” when he did not “investigate and present expert testimony regarding the possible effects of Effexor” on Drommond.
