Nadia MaryMetrokaFormer Florida Lawyer Disbarred for Raising Constitutional Principles
After a disciplinary proceeding consisting of salacious accusations, hurtful rumors, and other incorrect information, former Florida lawyer Nadia Mary Metroka was disbarred for arguing constitutional protections.
Her story examines the human consequences of disregarding the Constitution of the United States and basic human rights in the State of Florida and elsewhere. It asks what becomes of those protections when the people who invoke them face punishment—and what that means for the public they serve.
The matter was brought before the United States Supreme Court, but the constitutional concerns raised have remained unaddressed.
Drawing a parallel to the Salem Witch Trials, Metroka’s account confronts the power of salacious and false information to alter a life—and the distance between the constitutional safeguards our Founders drafted and the rights people experience today.
