‘Nah f*** that b****!’ Las Vegas judge is attacked by freshly-convicted criminal

A New York Judge received a shock when a freshly convicted criminal attacked her after she denied him bail.

Judge Mary Kay Holthus from the Clark County District Court was sentencing convicted criminal Deobra Delone Redden when she was forced to duck and hide after he threw himself over the bench in an attempt to attack her.

A clip showed the criminal dramatically leap out from where he was standing and take aim at the Judge to tackle her.

He can be heard saying: “Nah f*** this b****” after the judge denied his request for bail.

In the video he can be heard repeatedly punching Holthus and screaming at her using explicit language.

The judge can also be heard begging the angry criminal to get off her as security attempted to restrain him.

Redden has a criminal history with charges in both Nevada and Texas and has faced charges for battery, robbery, assault, injury to property, and coercion, according to records.

The judge sustained minor injuries in the attack and her condition is being monitored. A Court Marshal was also hurt and has been taken to the hospital.

In a statement to Channel 13 the Las Vegas District Court said: “We commend the heroic acts of her staff, law enforcement, and all others who subdued the defendant.

“The court remains committed to a safe and secure courthouse and courtrooms.

“We are reviewing all our protocols and will do whatever is necessary to protect the judiciary, the public, and our employees.”

Earlier the criminal could be seen describing himself as “a person who never stops trying to do the right thing no matter how hard it is”.

He had told the judge: “I’m not a rebellious person.”

He also added that he doesn’t think he should be sent to prison.

“But if it’s appropriate for you then you have to do what you have to do”.

The Nevada Attorney General’s office released a statement that read: “Sending our sincerest well wishes to District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus and the marshal injured in her courtroom today.

“Your dedication to justice and the court are truly commendable.”
