Severed Head Gets Attorney’s Goat

August 29, 2007

Some people consider “The Godfather” to be a life-guide.

However, none take it as literally as the Corleone-wanna-be who sent a message to prominent Milwaukee-area defense attorney Robin Shellow via a goat head yesterday.

According to WISN.com, this goat head came with its very own threatening note, all wrapped up in a pretty pink gift bag.

While this may take the cake as one of the strangest (and most disturbing) items an attorney has received, certainly it isn’t the first. (Not ascribing motives to anyone, but the car that landed in Warren Brown’s pool last week comes to mind…)

Tell us, attorneys, if you have been the recipient of any unforgettable gifts during your career.
