BOONE COUNTY — A man facing a murder charge in connection with the death of his wife and who received votes during the primary election for a township board position in Boone County, has withdrawn from the race, according to a withdrawal form.
The form was signed by Andrew Wilhoite Wednesday and doesn't give any details about why he withdrew from the Clinton Township Board race.
Andrew was charged in March after a detective alleged in court documents he threw a cement flower pot at his wife, Elizabeth Wilhoite, and dumped her in a nearby creek.
