Country music star Tyler Childers ‘stoked’ to get mannequin of disbarred KY lawyer

Eastern Kentucky’s most famous disbarred lawyer is going to be in prison a long time, but it looks like a rising country music star from the region will get a likeness of him to take home.

The lawyer is Eric C. Conn, who used large mannequins atop billboards to advertise his burgeoning Social Security disability practice when the singer-songwriter, Tyler Childers, was attending high school in Paintsville.

Conn is serving a 27-year prison sentence after admitting he faked evidence in clients’ disability claims and bribed a Social Security judge for favorable decisions.
