Lawyer posts the e-mail exchange on a Lawyers Weekly forum, omitting names. Law student posts lawyer's name on craigslist responding to her help wanted ad, exposing himself to as the idiot behind the e-mails.

Above the Law picked it up, as did another legal blog. Law student, pissed off about this being picked up by others, puts Above the Law blogger's name, number and e-mail on the craigslist Casual Encounters section, and advertised the author of the other blog as being available for nude modeling.

The student has also declared himself done with the legal profession, at least in Massachusetts. And at some point during this whole bruhaha, there was a youtube video that has apparently been since taken down. There's a description of the video in the above link.

I saw the first round of this on Above the Law, and honestly I think this asshole and the idiot lawyer he interviewed with were made for each other -- did you catch her request that he snoop on her employees for her?

But the Craigslist stuff, well, that just adds levels on levels. Let's just say, he really didn't need to declare himself done with the legal profession.
