Defendant Stabs Attorney, Attacks Prosecutor in Courtroom Melee

The trial for Ramello Randle, accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend, continues despite a violent outburst in court.

A murder defendant, Ramello Randle, stabbed his attorney and attacked a prosecutor in a Contra Costa courtroom, causing chaos.
The incident occurred during Randle's trial for the 2020 murder of his ex-girlfriend, Jonaye Lahkel Bridges, amid a custody dispute.
Randle, who has a history of courtroom violence, freed himself from restraints before the attack.
Despite the attack, the trial continued without Randle, who waived his right to attend, and is set to resume with closing arguments.
Randle faces charges including murder, attempted murder, and assault with a deadly weapon, with the potential for life without parole.
