Attorney Suspended From Federal Court in Chicago for a Year for Bizarre Antics
Attorney Joel Brodsky, best known for representing convicted wife killer Drew Peterson, has been suspended from practicing in federal court in Chicago for one year stemming from his scorched-earth tactics in a mundane lawsuit, reports the Chicago Tribune.
A panel of federal judges found that Brodsky violated the rules of professional conduct in the civil case involving a used vehicle.
“Brodsky’s bizarre antics in the case — all but accusing a witness of inventing a son and saying his rival attorney was running a ‘criminal enterprise’ — had already garnered him a stiff $50,000 fine and an order to undergo anger management training,” writes Jason Meisner.
