Federal Judge John H. Wood was assassinated in 1979 in a drug cartel action against him. Wood was nicknamed Maximum John because of his tough reputation, giving long sentences to drug dealers.

He became the first federal judge to be murdered since the turn of the century.

We know about dangers to federal judges. Not to mention prosecutors in those dangerous kinds of cases.

The convicted murderer was the father of actor Woody Harrelson. He was a contract killer.

Your fears for Judge Hanen’s safety are legit. But to say you hope he has armed body guards and has his car checked, causes me to remind of how aware LE in Texas is, not to mention the judge himself, of ever present danger.
