On his final day on earth, Tony Bruce was being chased by a couple of Goons from Easton trying to get back money Tony had supposedly stolen from a family estate.
This was the typical story in the life of Tony Bruce as many have stated the man was crooked and had lost his license to practice law, once for an entire year. He had been sanctioned numerous times, suspended and took advantage of the elderly and their money.
You don't read about this in The Daily Times, even in today's article. The locals are trying to keep everything quiet but the reality of it all is, the man committed suicide by taking Rat Poison. He was scared to death that these two were going to hurt him as they came in and agressively asked for their family money back and Tony didn't have it. He acted like he was going off to the Bank to get the money, (in which he didn't have any more) and they stopped him at his car and asked where he was going. He explained it wasn't at the Bank next door, it was down the street.
He was able to get away from these guys for a 1/2 hour or so and in the time that he got away he swallowed the poison and ultimately killed himself. I have heard from people in Princess Anne that this man would steal money from the elderly. He'd buy properties and never pay for it. I was also told it was well known that locals would stay away from him and not do business with him.
Now granted, I surely hope I never get a ticket in Princess Anne after this post and or get into any kind of trouble there because this is not the type of news anyone wants to get out. However, this is the real world and people deserve the right to know the truth. The man swallowed Rat Poison and he simply killed himself.
So if you're a lawyer and you cheat and steal from people, don't go killing yourself and think you're going to leave behind some sort of positive legacy. Tony Bruce was a cheat and took his own life. End of story. Some clients hate lawyers enough to actually think this is a wonderful ending to a lawyers life.

Speak to "anyone" in Princess Anne and you'll come to hear of stories about this man that will blow you away.
Even ask about him taking shots with a pistol at a woman delivering phone books and had a child with her. The man was not stable.
Sorry if the truth hurts but that's just the way it was with this man.
I live in PA and while some of what you say is closer to the truth than you think, its still not cool to air someone's dirty laundry. I agree with my2sense, this could be liable.
You're one of the very few.
