This is wild! A video of a convicted felon Deobra Redden flying over like a bird to attack Judge Mary Kay Holthus in Clark County District Court after his probation was denied has gone viral on the internet.
And from the video, Judge Mary Kay got some punches from Redden before the security guards came to her rescue. The man was too fast for security to stop him.

Around 11 a.m., Redden’s attorney asked Holthus to sentence his client to probation — but Holthus had something different in mind for the repeat offender.
“I think it’s time he got a taste of something else because I just can’t with that history,” she said.
Suddenly, Redden sprints up to the bench, springs himself over with outstretched arms and tackles the judge to the ground, video obtained by the outlet shows.
An American flag and a Nevada state flag came crashing down in the ruckus. Several other people can be seen wrestling with Redden in the chaos before as he yells profanities at Holthus, according to the footage.
Court officers appear to drag him away, but he breaks free and tries to go back after the judge, while she is still on the ground, video shows. He and others can be seen exchanging punches in the struggle.
“What the hell’s wrong with you man?” someone can be heard yelling in the background.
He was just about to turn his life around but the judge denied him that opportunity 😔

“Where’s Mary Kay – is she okay?” a man asks when Redden is finally put in handcuffs.
“Thank God the judge is okay,” Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said in a statement. “Thank God for the heroic efforts of those who came to her aid, especially her marshal and her law clerk.
“Without them, the situation would have been much worse as this defendant exhibited extremely violent behavior and I’m confident there will be consequences,” Wolfson said.
With this wild sprinting by Deobra Redden, it’s time the courtroom securities are beefed up to prevent this kind of chaos.
