A Richmond lawyer representing plaintiffs in a racial discrimination lawsuit claims that he and his wife were threatened with harassment by a Roanoke hate group leader, according to this item in The Virginian-Pilot. Troutman Sanders attorney Kevin Mottley is seeking a criminal contempt finding against the white supremacist who posted internet items about Mottley.

Ironically, Mottley’s web biography indicates that he defended an apartment complex against allegations of racial discrimination in a 1998 case.
