Nevada judge is back to work a day after being attacked by defendant who jumped atop her

A Nevada judge was back to work Thursday after being injured in an attack by a defendant in a felony battery case who charged forward and launched himself over the judge’s bench when it became clear that he was being sentenced to prison. The 30-year-old defendant is set to face the judge again next week for his rescheduled sentencing. Courtroom video captured a violent scene Wednesday as courtroom staff and officers wrestled the defendant away from the judge. Officials say the judge was injured and a courtroom marshal was hospitalized with a gash on his forehead and a dislocated shoulder. Deobra Delone Redden refused Thursday to be brought from jail for another court appearance. The lawyer who was with him on Wednesday declined to comment.
