A man attacked a judge
A man attacked a judge during his sentencing in a Nevada courtroom on Jan 3 after he had been denied probation.
The man, Deobra Redden, was in court in Las Vegas for a sentencing hearing after pleading guilty to attempted battery with substantial bodily harm
Judge Mary Kay Holthus was about to deliver her decision on prison time for the 30-year-old convicted felon when he ran up to the bench and jumped over furniture to assault her.
Court personnel had to detain Redden as he yelled expletives before being dragged away.
The court said the 62-year-old judge was injured as was being monitored.
Moments before the attack, Redden was asking the court for leniency from Judge Holthus, saying he had been suffering from mental illness, but was getting back on track and did not deserve jail time.
