Justice Scales and books and wooden gavel
A judge was violently assaulted in a Nevada court.
  • Deobra Redden violently hurled himself at a Las Vegas judge during a sentencing hearing last week.
  • After attacking Judge Mary Kay Holthus, Redden said he had a bad day, per arrest documents.
  • Clark County District Court Judge Holthus has ordered Redden to return to court next week.

The man who flung himself over a bench to violently attack a Nevada judge told police officers afterward that he was having a bad day, according to an arrest report obtained by local NBC affiliate KSNV.
