- And Ohio criminal defense attorney pooped in a Pringles can and threw it in the parking lot of a victim advocacy center.
- When he was in court explaining himself before the judge the attorney said it was just a joke. He said he does it 10 times a year, to blow off some steam
- The attorney knows the victim advocacy center. He was due to see them in court.
- Has been an attorney since 1976
- His license to practice has been suspended for a year, and had to pay a fine.

Blakeslee's defense? He said he didn't target anyone but had a habit of putting his feces in Pringles cans and randomly throwing them from his car. He claimed he pulled the Pringles prank at least 10 times that year.
But the court didn't buy it and said Blakeslee purposely chose the Haven of Hope in Cambridge, Ohio, as his "drop zone." Surveillance video captured the incident in November 2021.
Blakeslee had known the victim advocates at the center for years and was scheduled to see them in court 15 minutes after the Pringles deposit. At the time, Blakeslee was representing someone accused in a capital murder case.

I like the advice of this YouTube lawyer : if you find a pringles can, do NOT pick it up.
Court's comment:
"...Despite social standards on cleanliness and decorum, the attorney failed to control his own bizarre impulses to place feces filled cans out in public for unsuspecting people to find. His abhorent conduct has adversely reflected on his fitness to practice law and brought discredit to the profession through significant media attention the court said...'
So the court thinks media attention on this lawyer's behavior discredits the profession.. Well yeah....lawyers always had this stellar upstanding reputation in the US... (LOL)

The Ohio Supreme Court suspended an attorney for defecating into a Pringles can and dropping it in a parking lot of a crime-victim advocacy center.
