Clark County Judge Mary Kay Holthus was about to levy her decision on prison time for convicted felon Deobra Redden when he ran up to the bench and jumped over furniture to assault her. Video shows the expression on Judge Holthus’ face as Redden quickly approached, a flag pole collapsing and court personnel trying to detain Redden as he yelled expletives before being dragged away.

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.

  1. Judge was unprofessional, but then US judicial officials are political appointees, not proper legal professionals who have to act impartially, and not smirk in front a clearly dangerous defendant, who should have been restrained. πŸ™„

  2. Can someone explain to me why some americans are so volatile and violent? I dont see this type of behaviour in other countries even third world ones

  3. That's why in England defendants in serious criminal trials dont address the bench in their own person and have an advocate at the public purse , it repersonalises it the American way
