In what he terms “Part One” of a developing public legal critique, Thaddeus Sory has questioned the ethical standing of Godfred Yeboah Dame, accusing him of routinely breaching professional standards while paradoxically calling others unethical.
Responding to what he described as “Cry Baby’s” latest rebuttal, Sory said, “Did Cry Baby really say my criticism violates professional ethics? Another reason to doubt he penned that response himself.”
He referenced Dame’s habit of airing legal disputes in the media, suggesting this violates Rule 38 of Ghana’s professional conduct guidelines for lawyers.
Sory’s statement was also laced with legal sarcasm and ridicule. “Like the word ‘incongruous,’ Cry Baby must have a severely warped understanding of the word ‘obsessed,’” he said, arguing that it was Dame—not himself—who could not stop mentioning his name in public.
According to Sory, Dame’s public claims of victory in a case from 2009 were irrelevant and exaggerated. “
Imagine reaching all the way back to 2009 to dig up a case whose title you can’t even name, just to prove you beat me in court.”
The legal feud comes amid growing attention to Dame’s past prosecutions and his media posture. Sory implies that a culture of legal showmanship is taking precedence over professional integrity.
