Damn, that was a crazy jump.

Also, back punches are not effective at removing the man off the woman.

 

[Valedix]

How many guys does it take to control one guy? Jesus christ.

 

[adamsapple]

Whatever you may think of the dumbass, this was an incredibly smooth jump.

Holy crap, GTA VI live promos starting early!

god I'm a horrible person, I couldn't help but laugh. I hope the judge is ok.

 

[ManaByte]

“Nah fuck that bitch”

 

[Elginer]

Dude coulda had a career in the nba with jumps like that. Shame.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

I wonder if his negotiation tactic got his sentence reduced. If it did, I could see similar attacks happening in the future.

 

[AJUMP23]

Stolen karma from my social media post. I demand justice. Or parole.

I believe in certain situations people are capable of bursts of extra strength.

When working security it once took 3 of us to throw out a 170 pound coked out dude.
He was slippery as an eel and strong like a pissed off bull

I think the judge needed to understand he was a changed man.

 

[eddie4]

He thought it was the perfect way to "spring" his case to life! The judge wasn't amused.

i'll see myself out

Everyone involved in the courts security should be fired tomorrow.

Redden's attorney also argued for a suspended sentence, citing previous completions of probation programs, his mental health history and his background.

"I appreciate that, but I think it's time that he get a taste of something else," Holthus responded. "Because I just can't with that history."

That's when Redden swore at Holthus, jumped over the bench and leapt onto the judge

Bruh... "I just can't with that history...I think it's time he get a taste of something else" ??? What ???

 

[violence]

Slightly longer video of changed man attacking Judge.

Bruh... "I just can't with that history...I think it's time he get a taste of something else" ??? What ???

Before the judge sentences you, they have you beg for mercy. So that meant she wasn’t going lenient on the sentencing.

Reminded me of that cat Gif

 

[NecrosaroIII]

That guy is so fucked. Is the judge ok?

??? What's the issue?

The history in question:

a prosecutor said Redden had a history of violent crimes and asked for a prison term. Past charges include home invasion, domestic violence and battery on a protected person.

And as evidenced by the video, the judge was right. Dude deserves prison.

 

[Rockondevil]

Judge protective glass coming soon to a court near you.

Or an even taller stand.

 

[sono]

wow

What was his original sentence
What is it now

 

[SidViscous]

I’ve never seen anybody get out of a chair as slowly as that judge. Survival of the fittest!

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Looks like she took a face to the table too.

 

[SJRB]

That was an amazing jump, all things considered.

Sounds like a regular US judge to me. The shit they say would never fly in Europe, the moment you show attitude like this you are off the case.

 

[Denton]

America is fucking crazy

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Like one of the YouTube comments said, he was trying to be all good until the judge let him know he wasn't going to get away with that. It's like someone being ok until they don't get their way. People like that need to be put away.

Makes one wonder how many lives this individual has destroyed, and many lives were saved by finally putting this piece of shit in prison.

Of course this happened in my city.

Look at the dude in the front in the blue suit. Just fucking stands there while 2 guys are trying to restrain the suspect while he's landing blows on the judge.

Unbelievable. How are all the men in that court room not coming to her aide?

He looks pretty old, and might (fairly reasonably) question if there's a way for him to get close to the guy while what looks like maybe 5 younger, perhaps stronger and fitter men are already there.

He could have some sort of underlying health problem, could have relatively recently had surgery. Might just be in shock.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Well the guy just proved the judge's assessment on him was right and now he'll be behind bars for a while I'd imagine.

I will say I'm not a fan of the personal touch from the judge, "I think it's time he gets a taste of something else". I couldn't imagine that kind of line in a UK court room and just seems unecessary to add that kind of flavour to a sentencing.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

Should have sent him to high jump championship. Imagine the best of prison inmates doing olympics. Would be a hilarious TV series.

 

[Little Mac]

I'm told the New England Patriots are working on a deal ...

 

[Pagusas]

On the other hand, had the Judge not made it clear why she was putting him away, we may never have seen his 'true" self. She did the world a favor by exposing this guy, all by saying just a few little words.

 

[AJUMP23]

More Judges need to be tough on criminals. I am glad he is going to jail, and I wonder how much extra time he will get for attacking a judge.

 

[Evil Calvin]

There is a longer video showing him continuing to pummel the judge which one of the baliffs? Amins? feebly hitting on him to stop. All of this which his lawyer stands by the desk perplexed, doing nothing. Based on what I saw I'm sure she ended up with substantial injuries. He needs to be locked away permanently (he had tons of prior offenses).

Anyone who defends this guy need to go straight to hell.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

More Judges need to be tough on criminals.

Hundreds of studies were done showing that harsh sentencing and “war of crime” does not lead to a decrease in criminality but don’t let this small fact stop you.

 

[winjer]

That is on way to increase his sentence, instantly.
Congratulations on your stupid prize.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

That's a nice swan dive over the judges bench.

 

[AJUMP23]

I think you are right. But currently being soft on crime isn't working either. I think the US jail system is clearly not working and there should be some way to rehabilitate and work to get people to pay for their crime but return able to contribute.
