Oh, the poor judge.
Hey judge, ever heard of a little thing called “slavery”?
It’s a lot worse than a few bruises and a concussion.
A defendant has attacked a judge during a felony battery case, dragging her to the floor and sparking a brawl involving court officials and attorneys, officials and witnesses have said.
In a violent scene captured on courtroom video on Wednesday, Deobra Delone Redden jumped over a defence table and the judge’s bench, knocking the Clark county district judge Mary Kay Holthus from her seat and against a wall then pulled her to the floor. She sustained some injuries but was not sent to hospital, courthouse officials said.
A courtroom marshal was also injured as he came to the judge’s aid and was hospitalised for treatment to a gash on his forehead and a dislocated shoulder, according to the officials and witnesses.
The attack occurred at about 11am (local time) at the Regional Justice Center in Las Vegas.
Redden, 30, was wrestled to the floor behind the judge’s bench by several court and jail officers and courtroom staff members.
He was arrested and jailed at the Clark county detention centre, where records showed he faces several new felony charges, including battery on a protected person, referring to the judge and court officers.
“It happened so fast it was hard to know what to do,” said Richard Scow, the chief county district attorney who prosecuted Redden on a case that stemmed from an arrest last year over allegations that Redden attacked a person with a baseball bat.
Yeah, let’s just all feel sorry for the white woman who is responsible for the slavery that creates this behavior.
