Greenbrae shooting defendant sues 90-year-old man who was shot

Short form: a burglar shot a 90 year old man in the face. The 90 year old man shot him back. So, what does the burglar do? He sues the 90 year old man for “great bodily injury, and other financial damage, including loss of Mr. Cutrufelli’s home, and also the dissolution of Mr. Cutrufelli’s marriage.”

Just let that sink in.

THIS is why the US needs not a “loser pays” tort reform, but a “losing lawyer pays” system. The burglar/attempted murderer of course needs to be chucked into a steel and concrete box for the next half century or so. But his *lawyer,* the guy who’s facilitating this nonsense, needs to be severely sanctioned.
