MCCORDSVILLE, Ind. -- The business partner of embattled investment manager Tim Durham is accused of hitting his wife and son during a domestic dispute.
James F. Cochran, 54, was arrested at the family's McCordsville home Saturday morning on preliminary charges of battery resulting in bodily injury and domestic battery.
Susan Cochran told police that she and her husband were arguing when he grabbed her by the arms and threw her into a wall, causing her to hit her head.
The couple's son, James R. Cochran, 21, said he came into the room to try and protect his mother, and that his father pushed him and punched him in the eye, telling him "I'm going to [expletive] kill you."
James F. Cochran, who appeared to have a cut to the face in his mug shot, denied that any assault took place, and told police that he tripped and fell.
Cochran co-owns the Ohio investment company Fair Financial with Indianapolis-based businessman Durham. Federal investigators are looking into questions the men misused investors' money.
No charges have been filed in that case.
