I feel sorry for him. He's obviously quite ill.
Simply negotiating over the retainer.

Sources: Lawyer Found Nude In CJC With Young Teen
(CBS 3) PHILADELPHIA A Philadelphia lawyer was arrested Monday after alleged inappropriate conduct with a young girl inside Philadelphia's Criminal Justice Center.
Sources told CBS 3 a Sheriff's Deputy entered a room on the third floor of the CJC building and found 49-year-old Larry Charles, who was naked, with his 14-year-old goddaughter.
He had asked for sex. But there was no physical contact were aware of by the time the deputy arrived on the scene, said Lt. Dan Bagnell of the police departments Special Victims Unit.
The teens mother said Charles, a criminal defense attorney, was a family friend and trusted mentor to the young girl.
The mother also told CBS 3 police are trying to determine whether two additional female family members may have been victimized by Charles in the past.
Charles had no comment as he was taken into custody Monday evening.
Charles has been charged with solicitation, attempted statutory sexual assault and related counts, said Lt. Dan Bagnell of the police departments Special Victims Unit.
Charles was awaiting arraignment early Tuesday afternoon and bail was not yet set. A woman who answered the phone at his office said she could not immediately comment.
Courts were closed Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day and it was unclear how Charles and the girl got into the conference room. Though court proceedings were not in session, the courthouse was open for attorneys who might want to conduct other business in the building.
Yadda Yadda Yadda live girl or dead boy...
Sounds like he's going to need a good defense attorney.
Are you kidding?
If it were you or I, we'd get thrown so far down the hole we wouldn't even remember what moonlight was, much less sunlight.
Dude will get some kind of "paid administrative leave" or other slap on the wrist.
G-wd, your post nailed it!
The perp. He can always try the Marion Barry defense.
"..bitch set me up. "
Reminds me of a joke about a talking frog.
If it's true about how prisoners treat child abusers and child rapists, this guy is in for an experince he'd just assume he not take. And him being a lawyer will make him more of a target. If convicted, I hope he has a "real nice stay". Bubba is always looking for his next bi@#h.
Well ladies, there's his picture, is he guilty or not????
Geez .. he worked for a youth program under contract with the city
You watch .. he'll walk just like the teachers do
I agree. He's ill and will seek treatment.
End of story.
Maybe he still had his socks on?
I guess that would qualify as not being naked. Knowing attorneys, they would probably argue that point. Reminds me of the judge that used that ..er...pump behind the bench. Court was never boring for him.
LOL!
14 and already getting a lawyer? lucky girl..she is sooooooooooooooo cool....sarcasm
Actually, since it was MLK Day, he was going to take her to the mountaintop and 'show her the promised land' (as they say in Philadelphia).
