Pro se prisoner litigation isn’t the biggest problem facing society, but the case of Ladell Alexander is impressive in its chutzpah. Alexander molested a little boy in a St. Joseph County, Indiana library, and was convicted of the crime. Judge Sharp threw out Alexander’s lawsuit against the library security company for not doing enough to stop him, making the obvious point “Though every decent and moral person wishes that he had been prevented from committing this hideous crime, no one owes Mr. Alexander anything for having not done so.” (“Molester tries to sue those who didn’t stop him”, South Bend Tribune, Dec. 9 ($); LibraryLaw Blog reprint of Alexander v. DBS Security, No. 3:04-CV-703 AS (N.D. Ind.)).
