Quote of the month has to go to Theodore Silva Jr, a former real estate partner and cocaine user at US firm Holland & Knight who allegedly forged signatures and created fictitious notaries for an easement agreement.
Then he allegedly lied to his clients and bar counsel about that and about his cocaine use.
After being pulled up on this Silva Jr also reportedly testified that he had trouble telling the truth and he was "an addict of privilege ... not of money but of something that allows me to get out of trouble."
A common addiction - I am surprised that there isn't a support group.
