Harold Brazil Sues Tattoo Parlor

Former D.C. Council member Harold Brazil is suing the Jinx Proof Tattoo parlor for $5 million, Melissa Castro reports in the Washington Business Journal. His claim stems from a Oct. 9, 2008 brawl at the Georgetown tattoo business, an incident for which Brazil was ultimately held responsible and sentenced to a 30-day suspended sentence, six months unsupervised probation, and a $100 fine. Famously, Brazil admitted at trial that he did in fact pee on the Jinx Proof floor during the scuffle. Brazil also told the WBJ that he's appealing his conviction.
