LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. (AP) A co-founder of the Atlanta science fiction convention Dragon Con wants his 2013 conviction on child molestation thrown out. <br />
<br />
Ed Kramer pleaded guilty to three counts of child molestation as part of a December plea agreement. Authorities had accused him of molesting three under-age boys. The plea deal allowed Kramer to avoid prison time, but he was ordered to spend time under house arrest and on probation. <br />
<br />
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Kramer's lawyer Stephen Reba maintains that his client was improperly forced into the plea agreement. <br />
<br />
Reba says authorities failed to provide medical accommodations so his client could stand trial, putting him in the position of being forced into the plea deal. <br />
<br />
Kramer hasn't been involved with running Dragon Con since he was charged with the crimes in 2000. <br />
