Deobra Redden, 'Flying Felon' Who Attacked Judge, Now in Solitary Confinement
Redden Faces Multiple New Felony Charges Following Courtroom Assault
- Deobra Redden, the man who attacked Judge Mary Kay Holthus in court, has been hit with multiple new felony charges and is now in solitary confinement.
- Redden leaped over the bench and attacked Judge Holthus after she sentenced him for a previous conviction of attempted battery with substantial bodily harm.
- Judge Holthus was largely unharmed, but a court marshal dislocated his shoulder and received 25 stitches to a gash on his face during the incident.
- Redden reportedly told corrections officers after the attack that he was having a bad day and had tried to kill the judge.
- Redden is due back in court next week to be sentenced for the original case and will face multiple counts of battery for the attack on the judge.
