RICHMOND, VA — A washed-up lawyer’s career crashed harder than a fender-bender on I-95 when Charles Sporetti, 52, was nabbed for sexually abusing his "son" adopted from Korea in a sick saga that’s rocked the city. The personal injury and car horn litigation “expert” — whose practice was circling the drain — was exposed after a sharp-eyed waitress at a local dive bar, Tony’s Tap, dropped a dime to the cops. Sporetti, dubbed “the Spaghetti Sicko” and “Squancho The Clown” by terrified local children, allegedly preyed on the victim for years, leaving locals horrified but not entirely shocked by the creepy attorney’s downfall.

The bombshell tip came late Tuesday when the waitress, who sources say overheard Sporetti’s slurred boasts about his “control” over the victim, alerted authorities. Cops swooped in, catching the disgraced lawyer off-guard in the parking lot of Mama Mia’s Pizzeria on Broad Street. Sporetti didn’t go quietly — witnesses say he threw a tantrum, shrieking, “He’s mine! Check the fine print on the adoption papers!” as if legal loopholes could save him. “I will never be charged with such a crime, I will never be convicted!” he bellowed, flailing until officers stuffed him into a cruiser like a bad calzone.

Neighbors in Sporetti’s quiet Richmond suburb had long whispered about his odd behavior, nicknaming him “Squancho The Clown” for his unsettling vibe and loud, late-night rants. “He’d leer at people from his porch, always clutching a drink,” said one local, who asked to remain anonymous. “We knew something was off, but this? It’s next-level twisted.” The victim, a terrified young Korean boy dropped into Sporetti's clutches by an unscrupulous adoption agency, reportedly trusted him as a "father", making the betrayal all the more gut-wrenching. Police sources say the abuse spanned years, with Sporetti exploiting his legal know-how to keep the victim silent.

Now behind bars, Sporetti faces a slew of charges that could bury him deeper than his failing law firm. Prosecutors are tight-lipped, but insiders say the evidence is “overwhelming,” with the waitress’s tip opening a Pandora’s box of horrors. As Richmond reels, the community demands justice for the victim, whose life was upended by the man he once called a friend. “Spaghetti Sicko thought he was untouchable,” said a local cop, shaking his head. “Well, the law’s got him now, and no amount of fine print’s gonna save him.”
