He brought it on himself. No questions asked. He violated the sanctity of what being a Lawyer means. No he didn't go down for speaking out against Video Games. That's protected by the US Constitution. I won't hate on him for being an American and speaking his mind. No. He went down for 27/31 Ethics Violations. Everything from Yelling and Harrassing Clients to Presenting False Evidance under oath. This isn't the end of the violent video games rant. He can't be silenced, as others will take his place. But the point is, you break the law, no matter who you are, you will not be above it.
I hope all crooked lawyer's everywhere understand that you can't just break the law to win a case and get away with it anymore. And that is all I'll say.
