Law Clerk Who Helped Judge Being Attacked Takes the Stand: NV v Deobra Redden

[@EllieRyan-bl2oe]

When I first saw the video of the defendant attacking the judge, the thing that stood out the most to me was the way Mr Lasso jumped in w/o hesitation to protect the judge. It was obvious he was very protective of her. You could almost hear him thinking in that moment: "Oh, HELL NO! Not on my watch" His parents must be very proud of him!

[@charlotte_stevens]

Was it him that could be heard saying, "Get him the F out of here..." several times? 😆💖

Knowing her most of his life was a huge motivator to jump in.

[@FemiNelson-sb1em]

I found it endearing that he admitted that his math skills isn't that great, lol. I'm in my late 60's & I still have to visualize math in my head n even use my fingers, lol. Sometimes, I figure out a math problem faster than the norm & I jump for joy(figuratively), lol. Paz be with us all 🙏. "Isa"

A bit of privilege thrown in knowing the judge since age 8.

[@GoldenBuddah1972]

⁠@@LilTex0825I’ve known a federal judge appointed by Regan because they lived down the street from me. And other high profile attorneys and judges my entire life. They protect me like I’m their daughter because they are so fond of my father and they vowed to protect me help me get through life when he passed when I was 8. Yeah. Privilege is a charmed life. Born with a silver spoon in my mouth but with deceased father. I’d rather live under a bridge and have my dad than have all of the money in the world. I’m 51 now.

I was incredibly good at math in school. Algebra, A+++ all the way. I am now 53. I was a radio air personality for a big chunk of that time. You lose your math skills when you don't use them. I can't remember the first darn thing about it. Kids nowadays are allowed to have calculators for the easy stuff but then have to do the hard on their own.

IF this guy chooses to REALLY to accept his sentence, make better choices, hopefully accept receiving help to change n grow into a healthy man. I believe in miracles. Heavenly Padre is a awesome God. He allows life to be as it is, so one will lean on him, submit in humility, go on one's knee's in repentance n accept to be guided by the Holy Spirit & take that extra step & accept our Saviour Yeshua, to accept that albeit change & growth will NOT be easy, however; it will be so worth it.

[@th-sd6ni]
