OKLAHOMA CITY - A Pawnee County associate district judge was indicted twice Thursday by the state's multicounty grand jury. Judge Patrick M. Pickerill is accused in one indictment of falsifying judicial records and other felony offenses to create a drug court, even though he did not have that authority. Grand jurors alleged he hired a former secretary at his law firm as the drug court coordinator and as his bailiff. Grand jurors also allege he backdated two administrative orders to mislead the public and had an attorney lie for him.
He is accused in the second indictment of failing to file a loyalty oath after taking office after his election last November, a misdemeanor.
