Law Student of the Day: Alex Botsios

Alex Botsios is a 1L at Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. Last week, he left a window open overnight, and someone snuck into his Tempe apartment to steal his stuff.

From KPHO:

ASU student Alex Botsios said he had no problem giving a nighttime intruder his wallet and guitars.

When the man asked for Botsios’ laptop, however, the first-year law student drew the line.

“I was like, ‘Dude, no — please, no!” Botsios said. “I have all my case notes… that’s four months of work!”

That’s when Botsios showed him exactly how important case notes are to a law school student. He wrestled away the intruder’s baseball bat, punched the guy repeatedly, and called the police.

Botsios just had a bruised knuckle and a few scratches, while the intruder looked like this. He had to be taken for stitches before being booked for armed robbery and kidnapping.

Alex Botsios, congratulations. You are now an official ATL Law Student of the Day.
