A man identified as Deobra Redden, has been sentenced to at least 26 years in prison for attacking a judge in Clark County District Court.
The 31 year old man was captured on video leaping over a courtroom bench and desk and attacking Judge Mary Kay Holthus, on Tuesday.
Redden pleaded guilty but mentally ill in September to attempted murder and other charges shortly after Holthus, 62, testified that she feared for her life when Redden jumped over her 4-foot-high bench and landed on her.
The attack happened as Holthus was preparing to deliver Redden’s sentence in a separate felony battery case.
