"Attacker of Las Vegas Judge Faces New Charges Amid Judicial Security Concerns"

Deobra Redden, known as the "flying felon," attacked Judge Mary Kay Holthus in a Las Vegas court after being sentenced for attempted battery. He has since been charged with additional felonies, including coercion, extortion, and battery against a public officer. Redden has been designated as a "2C" inmate, resulting in his isolation from other inmates. The judge was not seriously injured, but another court employee was harmed, requiring stitches.
