In disgust or fear?

The references to the "Eastern Shore" and "Chesapeake" indicate they're talking about Maryland...which means the people involved were probably from Littler's DC office....which only has 15 attorneys & 7 women. Eeek.

P.S. What the heck was this guy doing in his wife's "personal e-mail"?

Nope. Good sleuthing, but nope.

It means his family is probably originally from the Eastern Shore of Virginia or the Eastern Shore of Maryland (the "'better than you' attitude" comment favors Virginia by a slight margin --- long commute to D.C., that). But not that they live there presently.

She is not one of the associates listed on the Littler website, in any office.

Thanks Atticus. As much as this subject entertains us, it's awful to subject every woman at Littler who fits the demographic to speculation that she is (allegedly) involved with a partner there.

Because she's gone already?

For what it's worth, I've been sent the original unexpurgated version of the email, and it involves people working in the SF office. Furthermore, the woman is not listed as an associate in any office because she has no law license. That's right: she's staff.

At least it wasn't a summer associate.

For her, that would have been better.

On the other board, more information was alleged about the woman in question and apparently she is a paralegal with a law degree, but no license to practice.

Having said all that, I'm still having a hard time believing everything about this. The "love letter" sounds like the back jacket of a bad romance novel (presuming there exists "good" romance novels.) I think we have enough anecdotal information that the letter was sent and that the players (or should I say "playas"?) were involved in some unseemly relationship, but does anyone have proof/knowledge beyond a reasonable doubt that the letter reported above is as it was sent?

I remember this woman. Her daddy must be so proud.

edited to add: with a little digging, you can find their wedding registry.

That seems an awfully high standard to apply, especially on this board.

On the other hand, a letter with such putrid prose probably should be considered a crime, so maybe you're right....

It's probably the stupid prose that horrifies colleagues the most.

After all, sin can be forgiven, but stupidity is forever.

In response to the request for proof beyond a reasonable doubt of this sordid story, consider this:

1. Each of the parties actually exists; it's true that you can find the GP on the firm web site, and the wedding registry identifying the happily married couple by name and silver pattern.

2. For it to be a hoax, the hoaxer would have to hate all three people (GP, round-heeled paralegal, and cuckolded husband) enough to want to slander them all over the internet.

I can see hating one or two of the parties enough to risk that kind of liability, but not all three. I know that's not proof, but I'm more willing to believe that a pathetic philandering GP would be a sickeningly bad love-letter writer than that someone would torch the lives of three innocent people.
