WACKO OF THE WEEK, 01/20/07

Philadelphia lawyer, Larry Charles, 43, who was arrested when he was allegedly found naked in a courthouse interview room with a 14 yr. old girl.

The lawyer was charged on Tuesday with a host of felonies - burglary, false imprisonment, statutory sexual assault, contact with a minor, unlawful restraint, corrupting the morals of a minor, criminal trespass and endangering the welfare of a child. (Now, mind you, we are talking about a lawyer!)
=============

There is a very old expression, "Sharp as a Philadelphia lawyer," which I have always taken to mean, overly clever and capable of all sorts of chicanery. Hmm .... has the definition changed? He seems to have been practicing without the proper license.

(I would not object if someone nominated Michael Devlin of Missouri, although I believe he may be more than crazy. He may be simply evil.)
