This guy sounds like a real jerk. However, the idea of a crime victim suing a criminal defense attorney makes me nervous. I don't know enough about the particular situation to comment; but cross-examining the alleged victim is part of being a defense lawyer. If victims are allowed to sue because they were subject to cross-examination, then that pretty much undercuts the ability of any defense attorney to conduct a zealous defense.

This guy may have gone way over the line. I don't know.
