The Bizarre Case of a Florida Lawyer’s Alleged Stalking Spree

From Courtroom to Cuckoo’s Nest for Florida Law Drama

South Florida’s legal circles are intrigued by a tale involving a stalking, rap-writing lawyer that reads like a true-but-weird crime podcast script. Carlos L. Santi, a 43-year-old Coral Gables attorney now facing aggravated stalking charges after allegedly terrorizing a fellow lawyer with late-night texts, uninvited office visits, and rap lyrics containing threats and nuance that would impress any rap impressario.

The drama reached peak surrealism when police arrested Santi clutching pizza boxes branded with his target’s name—a detail so bizarre it could’ve been lifted from a Succession subplot.

The alleged victim, another local attorney, claims Santi crossed every boundary: lurking outside his home, name-dropping his kids, and blasting tracks like a villain curating a threat playlist.

Surveillance footage reportedly caught Santi pacing the lawyer’s street, eyes locked on the house like a Netflix stalker archetype.

The fear grew so palpable that the targeted attorney evacuated his office, sending staff home mid-shift.

But what makes this worse is that is isn’t Santi’s first rodeo with controversy. A federal judge recently slapped him with sanctions for flouting court rules in a condo case, ordering him to donate $200 to a bar association fund—a wrist-slap that now feels tragically quaint.

Judge Mindy S. Glazer has since issued a restraining order, though the legal community is left wondering: How did pizza boxes and rap bars become tools of attorney intimidation?
