Man caught on camera accosting a Las Vegas judge in court is sentenced in an unrelated attack
Hindustan TimesLas Vegas, Jan 8 The same judge accosted by a defendant in a Las Vegas courtroom last week sentenced her attacker on Monday to up to four years in prison in an unrelated case. HT Image Deobra Delone Redden leapt over the bench and attacked Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus in her courtroom last week after trying to convince the judge he was turning around his violent past. In the attack last week, Redden had to be wrestled off the judge by several court and jail officers and courtroom staff members — including some who were seen throwing punches. Wiese credited court clerk Michael Lasso for acting quickly to protect the judge, saying he was the “primary person” who pulled Redden off “and probably kept her from having more severe injuries.” GRS GRS
