Salvatore Strazzullo, a New York City attorney best known for a string of salacious cases that caused local papers to nickname him the “Night-Life Lawyer,” was found dead in his car early Saturday in Brooklyn, according to police.
The 52-year-old Manhattan resident had more recently been facing a number of legal battles after allegedly bilking his own clients for millions, using the money for his own debts and luxurious lifestyle, according to Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez.
Police found him unresponsive and unconscious in his car around 3:30 a.m. Saturday, parked near the intersection of 16th and Cropsey Avenues, an NYPD spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
