In a Nevada courtroom, Deobra Redden, denied bail, attacked Judge Mary Kay Holthus during his sentencing for attempted battery.

Redden leaped over a bench, injuring the judge and a court marshal. Video footage showed chaos as Redden was subdued by three men.

The court spokeswoman confirmed injuries to Judge Holthus and the marshal, emphasizing a commitment to review security protocols for safety.

Redden’s lawyer requested probation, but Judge Holthus cited his criminal history before the attack.

Redden has a past record, including prison time for attempted theft in 2015 and domestic battery in 2021.

Security measures are in place at courthouses, yet incidents of attacks on court staff have occurred.
