发帖数: 3365 | 1 An Illinois lawyer who pleaded guilty to having sex with a man for $100 is
suing her former defense attorney and two other lawyers for allegedly
distributing naked photos of her.
Reema Bajaj, 27, says her former lawyer Timothy Johnson, former prosecutor
Calvin Campbell, and a lawyer listed in her complaint only as "John Doe"
gave confidential photos to the public along with unflattering news articles
about her.
Now potential clients, jurors, and judges have all seen these embarrassing
files, Bajaj says. She's suffered "extreme anger, grief, embarrassment, and
humiliation," according to her lawsuit, which was posted online by Illinois
newspaper the Daily Chronicle.
Johnson and Campbell, who now have their own practice together, did not
immediately respond to a call requesting comment on the suit.
Bajaj pleaded guilty to prostitution over the summer. She was fined $2,500
and ordered to do 50 hours of community service and have a psych evaluation.
Police arrested Bajaj in June 2011, saying they discovered emails between
her and a man who paid her for sex as part of an investigation into an
unrelated case, the Daily Chronicle reported at the time. She was charged
with three counts of prostitution, but two were dropped as part of a plea
deal.
Police said there weren't any connections between her prostitution and her
law firm clients. In her lawsuit filed Monday, Bajaj said she feared the
photos and articles that were allegedly distributed after her arrest would
hurt her law firm business. |
