“Wealthy suspect is serial litigant”

by Walter Olson on April 29, 2005

“During the two decades [millionaire murder defendant Fred] Keller has lived in Palm Beach County, he has filed more than 160 lawsuits. Most were landlord-tenant actions in connection with his commercial real estate empire,” but there were also a large assortment of others, including suits naming several relatives and a former girlfriend against whom he waged a 16-year campaign to collect a $2,225 debt. Keller, 70, is headed for a retrial next month after a jury deadlocked on charges that include “first-degree murder in the death of his fifth wife, Rosemarie, and attempted first-degree murder in the wounding of her brother in November 2003.” (Larry Keller, Palm Beach Post, Apr. 25)(via Sploid).
