A lawyer in Mississippi is grateful that he and his s، members are safe after an a،ated client with a gun in his leather bag demanded $25,000.
“We don’t take it for granted that the Lord spared our lives yes،ay,” said lawyer Carlos Moore of Gre،a, Mississippi, in an interview with WREG.
The client came to Moore’s office with his wife, said he was the Messiah, and said he wouldn’t leave until he received $25,000 in his workers’ compensation case, Moore told the broadcast station.
Moore told the client that he had to call the opposing counsel. Moore left the meeting room, called 911, and texted his s، to remain in their offices.
“I was concerned what he would do when I came back to tell him there would not be a $25,000 check today,” Moore said.
When Moore came back, the client “was going for a gun” in a small leather bag, Moore said. The client’s wife was telling him, “No, you’re not doing this today.” The client replied that the gun wasn’t loaded, and he and his wife continued to bicker over it.
Police and paramedics quickly arrived. The client wasn’t charged because he never threatened harm. Moore plans to withdraw from the man’s case.
